Front and Rear Brake Rotors
On a 2018 Lexus LS 500 the front and rear rotors serve complementary roles and experience different loads. Front rotors handle the majority of braking force during deceleration because weight shifts forward; as a result, front rotors and pads typically wear faster than rear components. Rear rotors help stabilize braking and assist with balanced stopping—both are engineered to precise factory specifications to maintain vehicle dynamics, ABS calibration, and driver confidence. At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX we inspect both axles and advise whether resurfacing or replacement is appropriate based on thickness, runout, and wear patterns. Choosing OEM rotors and pads preserves handling characteristics and prolongs component life. We frequently run promotions—see our service specials—and offer service financing to make repairs manageable. To keep your LS 500 safe and performing, schedule service online and let our Lexus-certified technicians evaluate your front and rear braking system promptly.
