Front and Rear Brake Rotors
Front and rear rotors on a 2012 Lexus IS 350 serve different roles: the front rotors absorb the bulk of stopping force and typically experience greater heat and wear, while rear rotors support stability and parking brake functions.

At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX, our technicians measure each rotor, test runout, and assess whether resurfacing or replacement is the safest option for your vehicle. Choosing dealership service provides assurance: OEM-spec rotors and pads, factory-trained technicians, and clear warranty coverage for eligible repairs.
