^^^ Yeup.. Javy is right!!
The OEM Brembo rotors only have one part number for front and one part number for rear..
The vanes are Pillar Fin desgined and non direcional. Therefore hole pattern is irrelevant in this case.

It's funny that Lexus made the wheels directional in 2008 and 2009 with 4 different part numbers..
BUT for 2010 they made the wheel design symmetrical for front & rear.
Again only make one part number for front and one part number for rear the 2010 wheels..
Cutting down on cost while refreshing the wheel design.![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Oh and I am still looking for 2 piece rotor alternatives for front and rears along with a good set of pads...
Its time to move on from the oem rotors and pads. Great for what they desgined, but doesn't fit my needs..

The 360mm OEM size is going to be the biggest problem for aftermarket support. Everything else is 355mm. Trust me, I really understand the importance of just a couple of millimeters on a braking system.

You just can't find 360mm rotor rings..
The Rear 345mm rotors are easy..
Actually, Brembo already has 2 piece GT Rotors (345x28) specifically desgined to work with our rear OEM caliper.. simple rotor swap!!
They are only $1700 each.. (drilled or slotted)
You can also get the Brembo GT Kit for the Fronts for $4350..
Includes new 6 piston calipers and 380x32 - 2 piece rotors and all the other stuff for installation.
