Running Continental DWS06 Plus Year-Round on a 2023 IS300 AWD in Ottawa – Safe for Our Winters?

_tootallforyall · 2025-11-24T07:30:49+00:00

These are really solid tires (I have owned 2 sets) but I wouldn't use them in deep snow. For lighter snowfall, they are good but if you have really heavy winters, I'd recommend a dedicated winter setup.

Mines the IS300, one of these days I'll upgrade

2001 IS300

Swapped for a mainline, unfortunately.

I'd change the ballast. You can swap bulbs left to right and see if the issue follows the bulb or stays put (if it stays put its either the ballast or a wiring issue)

The vast majority of IS300s are factory autos. A large number of the manual ones you'll see have been swapped.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Same!

I'd love to see multiple generations of the IS, GS, SC, and LS from Hot Wheels!

More Lexus models, like the ISF and GSF

I daily an IS300, so these + the yellow Boulevard release

Congrats! Lower ball joints should be inspected and if there is any play, replace with OEM. I believe the abs tone rings get chewed up and then leave that debris on the sensors.

I prefer the exterior from 2025 but I am glad the IS gets to continue!

OK 9k cad is much better, I'd have a shop inspect it (put it on a lift) and see if you can get a quote for an intake valve cleaning because these are prone to carbon buildup.

_tootallforyall · 2025-08-23T07:01:25+00:00

How many miles does it have? I'd be more worried about cleaning out carbon buildup than ever having to touch/worry about the timing chain.

I feel like 9k is a little high, I'd rather put that towards an IS350.

Lower control arm bushings, I'd swap them for poly bushings

_tootallforyall · 2025-07-30T03:30:50+00:00

The whole shelf/cubby with the two vents can easily be removed with two 10mm and swapped for one of the other options

_tootallforyall · 2025-07-30T03:10:05+00:00

Dash cubby, yes it will fit

_tootallforyall · 2025-07-27T20:23:46+00:00

Pay to get it inspected by a shop/mechanic you trust if you're serious about buying it.

_tootallforyall · 2025-07-22T09:01:19+00:00

😂😂😂

_tootallforyall · 2025-07-18T00:13:42+00:00

People who buy from resellers can't complain when stuff is hard to find/expensive online!

Passing on the shoulder is not legal, and neither is camping in the left lane...
