• Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham inspects rotors using OEM standards and recommends the option that provides the best long-term value and safety — often saving you money over time compared with temporary fixes.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2018 Lexus IS 300 uses front and rear rotors that work together to provide balanced, reliable stopping power. Front rotors typically handle a larger share of braking force and heat dissipation because weight transfers forward during braking; as a result, front rotors often show wear earlier than rear rotors. Rear rotors still require routine inspection because uneven rear braking or issues like corroded hardware can reduce stability and ABS performance. At Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham our certified Lexus technicians assess both front and rear systems, measuring rotor thickness, checking for runout, and verifying caliper function. We explain whether resurfacing or replacement is the safest, most cost-effective option, and we use OEM rotors and pads to maintain factory braking feel and longevity. Customers can take advantage of service financing to address needed repairs promptly without compromising safety. For promotions and discounts, see our service specials.
