Front and Rear Brake Rotors

On the 2020 Lexus LS 500 the front and rear rotors play complementary roles: front rotors typically handle more braking force and heat, so they often wear faster than rear rotors. Front rotors are larger and dissipate heat from repeated heavy stops; rear rotors assist with stability and parking brake function. When one axle shows wear, it’s critical to inspect the other to preserve balanced braking performance. At Nalley Lexus Smyrna in Smyrna, GA, our certified Lexus technicians inspect rotor thickness, run-out, and pad condition using OEM specifications. We’ll explain whether resurfacing is safe or replacement is required and show clear pricing. Take advantage of our current service specials and service financing options so you can address axle issues immediately without sacrificing quality.
