VERSADO LX feedback from long time owners?

I am looking at Toyo VERSADO LX tires. They will not go on my 2006 RL, but on my wife's '07 Sienna van. I know that a lot of RL owners have the Versados and this is why i am asking for real world feedback on this forum ...

1. How do they handle in the Wet?
2. How do they age? How many miles do you have on them and how much rubber left?
3. How is the road noise?
4. How do they handle around corners - are they responsive or more on the "soft" side?

Thanks in advance!

1. Very good...This is the number one thing I look for in a tire. Not bad in the snow either
2. about 35K on them....maybe about 40-45% left.
3. Extremely quiet
4. I think they are very responsive.....keep in mind they are touring tires

I agree with all of the above .. nice tire, no complaints

1. How do they handle in the Wet?
great, been pouring here and no hydroplaning

2. How do they age? How many miles do you have on them and how much rubber left?
just got them

3. How is the road noise?
quiet

4. How do they handle around corners - are they responsive or more on the "soft" side?
A wee bit soft on fast corners .. but that's pretty normal .. very responsive

I have them on my Rl and they have been a vast improvement on the oem michellin tires which were loud over any level of payment. I also think that the softer compound on the Versados lends itself to a more grippy feel to them over the michellins which feel almost slippery when when pushed hard. I am very happy with the quality and wear of the tire, especially when you compare the price differential.
