Nalley Lexus Smyrna provides transparent, itemized estimates and discusses immediate and long-term savings of choosing OEM rotors and professional installation.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different roles on the 2018 Lexus GS 450h. The front rotors typically handle the majority of braking force and therefore wear faster; the rear rotors assist with stability and regenerative braking in hybrid operation. Because front rotors endure higher temperatures and loads, they are more likely to need resurfacing or replacement sooner than rear rotors. Nalley Lexus Smyrna inspects both axles to detect uneven wear, scoring, or thickness variation and recommends a plan that balances safety and cost.
