Thinking of purchasing a higher mileage FX35.

Good, you already figured that out.
Go Hankook.
Great all-round performer for LA. More aggressive tread pattern, & I believe cheaper. No sacrfice in quality either.
 
Get it, 92k isn't anything nissan motors can last up to 200,000 miles so go for it, as long as you take car of your engine on time the car should the great!
 
i read on the org that hankooks are slightly narrower than the rest within the same size category. not that it's going to change the dynamics but might want to consider 275/45/20 or 275/50/20 also, the latter having the largest sidewall....
 
92k isn't bad for an VQ motor...I just purchased my FX from Carmax with 80k miles...just check Carfax history & be thorough with taking care of the FX & you'll be fine. My loaded 1997 Maxima has 273k miles original engine & trans & I still take it on road trips. I change oil every 3k miles, detail weekly & get majority of work done @ Nissan.
