go with after market rotors, they will be cheaper and better performance than oem!

I have the EBC Sport Rotors in the rear. They wear very evenly and look good. I paired them up with the EBC Red pads. They seem to be holding up very well and still have lots of meat left after putting about 20k miles on them. I'm looking to get the same setup for the fronts when they need to be changed.

i just got my rotors and brakes done also. But my dealer just resurfaced my rotors and gave me some dust-less pads all under warranty(tsib)

So i got new brakes and like new rotors.

My local garage just ordered them from their usual distributor ... maybe the Brembo web site will tell us if their made for the 350 now. This rotor had a gold anodized finish on the non-disc surface .... really nice because it didn't rust or corrode. The guy at the garage was a weekend raser and he ran these .... but they were also good and reliable on the street .... they needed a few minutes to heat up to work best.

I never noticed any loss of breaking compared to OEM .... new, the Lexus OEM braking on the IS300 was superb.
