Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Understanding the difference between front and rear rotors is key for owners of the 2018 Lexus LC 500. Front rotors typically do more of the braking work because of weight transfer during deceleration, so they generally experience greater heat and wear. Rear rotors share braking duty but often wear more slowly; however, uneven pad compounds, a stuck caliper, or driving style can accelerate rear rotor wear. At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX, our certified technicians evaluate front and rear systems independently to recommend resurfacing or replacement only when necessary. Choosing dealer service means OEM rotors and pads are installed to exact specifications, minimizing vibration and improving pedal feel. Our process includes measuring rotor thickness, checking runout, and inspecting calipers and hardware. We emphasize clear communication about cost, warranty coverage and long-term value — and we offer practical options like service financing to spread payments.
