Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2017 Lexus GS 350 relies on a balanced braking setup where front rotors typically handle the majority of stopping force, absorbing more heat and stress than the rear rotors. Because the front axle does most of the braking, front rotors tend to wear faster and are more prone to warping under demanding conditions. Rear rotors, while still critical, often last longer but can be affected by uneven pad wear or poor caliper operation. At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX, our technicians inspect both front and rear systems, measure rotor thickness and runout, and recommend resurfacing or replacement based on manufacturer specs. We use OEM parts and follow factory procedures so the entire system performs as engineered. Ask about our current service specials, and when you’re ready to protect stopping performance and safety, schedule service online for a prompt appointment with certified Lexus technicians.
