Front and Rear Brake Rotors
Front and rear rotors serve different roles on a 2018 Lexus GS 300: front rotors handle the bulk of braking force and typically wear faster, while rear rotors assist with stability and parking brake functions. Because the front axle dissipates more kinetic energy during stops, front rotors often require attention sooner; uneven wear, heat spotting, or vibration may indicate the need for replacement or resurfacing. Our technicians at Park Place Lexus evaluate both axles, test for runout and minimum thickness, and recommend OEM rotors when replacement is necessary to preserve balanced braking. We honor manufacturer warranties and provide full-service documentation—advantages that translate to immediate and long-term savings by avoiding recurring issues.
