lexus082 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Personally I like to go with Brembo and OEM Lexus pads. Drilled rotors keep the brake system cooler & slotted will eat up brake pads quicker. I have regular brembo rotors on the rear and brembo drilled & slotted on the front. I've never had any problems with Brembo. I just do every day-day driving, no racing. Pretty sure its still cheaper than buying Lexus rotors depending upon your local dealers prices.

option00002 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Just to throw an additional option out there... I chose to reduce the cost of the job by purchasing no-name Rotors (Korean) and high quality ceramic set of pads (to prevent squeaking). I replaced all four on the car this way and 3,000 miles later they are great. In retrospect, I have seen some other members post some extremely low prices for cross-drilled rotors on here that I might have considered, but just know that there is a lower cost option that functions quite well.
