Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The front and rear brake rotors on a 2021 Lexus LS 500 serve complementary roles. Front rotors often endure more heat and load because front brakes handle a larger share of stopping force; they can show wear sooner. Rear rotors provide balance, parking brake function, and stability. Our technicians inspect both axles and recommend front-only, rear-only, or full-axle service based on measured thickness, runout, and surface condition. Ignoring a single failing rotor can accelerate pad wear and compromise ABS and stability control integration. At Nalley Lexus Smyrna we offer transparent estimates, OEM parts, and warranty-backed repairs so you get immediate value and lower total ownership costs. Check our current service specials, ask about loyalty programs, or schedule appointment online for prioritized service.
