Lisalew Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Can someone tell me the difference in ceramic brake pads and the regular brake pads and what is the price difference? I think I'm due and unsure what type to get. Does the ceramic pads come on the RX, I have a 01. Thanks for you help Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX in NC Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Ceramic brake pads are typically harder, quieter, and create less dust than regular brake pads. Prices vary widely - you should shop around. Unless you're still under warranty, do NOT go to the Lexus dealer to get your new brakes. The dealer will charge you double or more what a good brake job should cost. There are many shops and chains that specialize in brakes - get out your Yellow Pages or go online and find them in your area. Newspapers and mailings often carry coupons that can save you $25 or $30 per axle. Many brake shops offer discounts to AAA Club members or other motor clubs. Brakes are not rocket science - find a good brake shop in your area and save yourself some money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
