Post 06' gs300 brake pads replacement

I want to go to my local toyota dealer to get some brake pads for my 06' gs300. Does anyone know what vehicle pads are the same as my gs300? I was thinking the avalon pads may be similar. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I dont think there is a GS equivalent at toyota. I suggest rockauto.com and choose aisin (oem equivalent) or akebono ceramic, they run about 40 a set. For exact oem try sewell.

I would suggest just bringing your old brake pad to toyota and have them compare it, thats what I use to do for some ES330 brake pads, but the price is not too much different from Lexus or Toyota so you might as well just buy it from like Sewell

you can by oem ones from the dealer if you like but they will cost you about 80 bucks for a set. a little expensive but a lot cheaper than having them install them. i also 2nd akebono pads. i had them on my car and they worked out well

Akebono ProAct Ceramic pads from TireRack.com. $47 for the front set, $59 for the rear. Can't beat it. Excellent pads.

(btw, Akebono makes Toyota's pads)
