haha, thats what i thought too. I'm still talking to my wallet to see if I can afford LS400 calipers or not.

specs from lexus website:

LS460 - 13.14" front rotor, 12.4" rear rotor, same size rear as most lexus anyway
LS460L with touring package - 14.06" front, 13.27" rear

which brake setup is he selling?

Not too much bigger than a supra front brake....

i wonder if the new brakes are aluminum monoblock again. if so, then you get weight savings

if this is the setup from the swb 460, i wonder if these are the same advics calipers as the 3gs. marginal improvement over a TT or LS430 upgrade for twice the price. if it's the touring package brakes, that would make it an interesting alternative to aftermarket bbk's.

anybody notice how the rotor sits on the studs in the photo from the 3rd post? once i did place a 5x120 rotor off a s600 onto my 5x114.3 hubs, it fit but was a little lopsided, definitely not something i would want to drive on though. i do like the exposed cooling vanes near the rotor hat. does the setup come with redrilled 460 rotors or did he find rotors of the same size/offset from another vehicle or aftermarket application?

i'm asking the guy whos making this kit if it is for the SWB or LWB...i'll let you guys know. and i asked him if he'd be interested selling here as a vendor

i think the question should be whether it's touring or not

I got a response, its 19" (holy crap 19"??? my wheels are only 18" LOL)

front 357mm
rear 335mm

and he said that it might be cheaper because apparently the price listed includes labor fee. I'll keep you guys posted.

so these are the touring brakes then, 14". but it should fit under 18" wheels then? unless the caliper is THAT thick

Coco, could the rotors be made to be cross drilled?
