The Centric rotors you will find at places like rockauto.com and amazon.com will be more than adequate for your needs.

Centric rotors on Amazon. About $53 each with free shipping.

i read somewhere that our rx350 with vin: 2T2HK are built in canada and i just ask someone in the local brake store and she said canada built rx350 won't fit the US built rx350 rotors, is this true?

$192+ a pair for the fronts and $168+ a pair for the rear. Shipping, of course, would be dependent on where you are located.

Note that the system does not specify any differentiation between Japan built and Canada built RX350. Fits all 2007-2009.

Question is nonsensical. There are no US built RX350. Only Japan and Canada.

If you go to rockauto.com, look up your RX350's brake selection, you will find a listing to include a section for daily driving. Note the premium rotors from CENTRIC. Those are the ones you want as mentioned previous. There are no differences, no confusion and will fit all RX350 from 2007 to 2009.

Perhaps your shop is trying to sell you a set of BECK/ARNLEY. There are some of these which will not fit vehicles sold in the US market which were built in Japan. Not sure why these lists show anything USA built. USA market, yes. USA built, no.

I recently purchased rotors for my BMW Z3 from Cquence. They have the drilled and slotted, zinc coated and more. It's worth checking out. I got a really good deal for the Z3.

Here is a link for a search I did for my 2009 RX350

well, this rx350 is not mine, i wanted to change the rotor for pop, had no idea if the old rotors are turn or not, it is warped figure i get new ones because they warped faster when turn ( thinner rotor)
