Unhappy Need F/R Rotors and pads

Hi,

I have a 1999 RX300 AWD with a warped rear rotor.
I couldn't find anybody who sells decent rotors. Brembo don't make them and I heard TRW is the onlt one and they only make the Front Rotors only. I heard bad thing about some OEM that is made from China. Does anyone know where I can get these rotors? I don't need them xdrill, but maybe slotted or nothing just OEM.

Thanks
Frankie

Check out irontoad.com, they have some replacement rotors for both front and rear.

www.rockauto.com lists Wagner and Raybestos rotors for it. Between $45 to $55 for the rear. Probably equivalent to OEM or slightly better. I would choose Raybestos over Wagner....I use the high end Raybestos pads on all my vehicles now.

Default Finally decided

Hi and thanks for all the info,

I finally decided what I am going to buy. I put an order to IROTORs.com and order the following:\

1999 Lexus RX300 AWD

F/R EMC blank rotors - $190 for all - I live in NY with a lots of stop and go. They recommended the blanks which is fine. I don't see any benifit on the xdrill/slotted in city driving anyway.

F/R Aixxis Metal Master Pads - $85 - That's the onlt one they sell and people say they're pretty good.

Shipping to NY - $35 - reasonable.

Thanks to all again.

This will be a DIY with a friend.....Wish me luck.....First time DIY on my car............

Regards,
Frankie
