Quick question.... Why do some iM's come with Bridgestone Tires and Some with Toyo Tires? I saw one dealer in CA has an iM with Brdigestone and another with Toyo's... Both cars are brand new in the lot.

Mine has the Toyo's.

Why some would have different ones I don't know
I checked when ordering my vehicle, there's no reason why they come with Bridgestone's or toyos but I was happy my vehicle came with the Bridgestones.
The Toyo PROXES A20 BW came with (300) threadwear , compared to the Bridgestone ECOPIA EP422 PLUS came with (600) threadwear.
Both tires are **Max Cert Speed 149 mph ,Speed Rating V ,Traction A ,Temp A & both weight 21 lbs **

the Toyos drive better. All the press cars during the intro had them.

I've moved on from the Bridgestones to DWS06 tires and lighter wheels. Toyota ****** up here.

Wifey is not liking Bridgestone so we're looking at Toyo tires, or any other better recommended tire.

Do the Toyo tires give the same or better mpg?
Typically if their more comfortable, I would presume softer compound and sticker, so probably the same if not a little worse ? This is based off of limited knowledge so someone correct me here
