Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2018 Lexus IS 350 uses larger front rotors that absorb most braking force, which typically causes front rotors to wear faster than rear ones. Rear rotors handle less load but are critical for stability and anti-lock systems. At Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham we inspect both axles, measure rotor thickness, and evaluate ABS and caliper performance to determine whether resurfacing or replacement is required. Common issues include uneven wear, warping from heat, and scoring from debris; each can increase stopping distance, pedal pulsation, and uneven pad wear. We emphasize transparent pricing, OEM parts, and technician certification—backed by warranty—and we offer service financing and loyalty benefits to help you manage costs. Count on our team to explain the differences between front and rear repairs and to schedule appointment online.
