How do you know when to replace brake rotors?

Brake rotor issues on a 2016 Lexus IS 300 commonly include scoring from worn pads, warping from high heat, and loss of thickness from normal wear.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front and rear rotors on a 2016 Lexus IS 300 play distinct roles: front rotors handle most of the stopping force and typically wear faster due to weight transfer under braking, while rear rotors assist with balance and stability. Because of this disparity, front rotors often require replacement sooner; however, uneven wear or caliper issues can affect either axle. Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham inspects both axles and recommends replacements or resurfacing based on precise thickness measurements and wear patterns. We stand behind OEM parts and certified workmanship, and our service advisors will explain the cost-benefit of resurfacing versus replacement for both front and rear rotors. Take advantage of our ongoing service specials, and schedule appointment online to keep your Lexus braking system performing like new.
