Big Brakes

[Troy00690]

I am a first time Lexus owner and I am looking for Big Brake Kits Front and Rear. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance

Front and rear? StopTech has a 4-piston setup on all 4 corners. Rotora has a 6-piston front/4-piston rear setup. Fitment will depend on your wheels. The StopTech is more "forgiving" but you won't be able to put them on OEM wheels.

I noticed you are in NorCal. If you have time, check this out:

NorCal End of Summer Meet v.3

It is the biggest NorCal Lexus meet each year. Try and come. You'll see some BBKs in person. :)

I have 20"s on there now. I was looking for 14" rotors and i like the 6 piston set up.

What wheels do you have? Are your wheels high disk front and rear? What is the offset?

With 20s, the 14" rotors will fit. This does not guarantee that the calipers will fit. Use this template to check your wheels:

You just need to paste it on cardboard or something hard, cut it out, and rotate it inside your wheels (both front and back since you want 4-corners). Obviously, you'll have to take your wheels off for this. :)

Last I checked (but this was months ago), Rotora did not have a template for their 6/4 setup. They do have a template for the 4-piston front setup but it is not very good. I had to play with it to get the scaling right. In any case, it required a little bit less than the StopTechs so if the StopTech template works, you will be OK for the Rotora 4. The Rotora 6, however, is huge. When I compared their preliminary template, it was actually larger than even the Ap Racing 6-pot (front only). The Rotoras were also either the same or larger than the Brembos (also front only).

Let me know how it goes. Once you decide, I can hook you up with some dealers. You are looking at a ballpark of 4k for front and rear big brakes.
