Front and Rear Brake Rotors

On the 2012 Lexus IS 250 C, front rotors usually experience heavier wear because the front brakes handle most of the stopping force; this means front rotors can thin or warp sooner than rears. Rear rotors support stability and parking brake functions and may last longer in many driving conditions. At Nalley Lexus Roswell in Roswell, GA, our technicians measure rotor thickness, runout, and surface condition to determine whether resurfacing or replacement is best. Ignoring a worn front rotor can lead to vibration, reduced stopping performance, and accelerated pad wear that increases overall repair cost. We use OEM rotors and parts to preserve braking calibration and ABS performance, and every service is backed by proper torque specs and road testing. Ask about current service specials and our loyalty programs—our service advisors will explain immediate savings and the long-term value of dealer-performed repairs. To keep your Lexus performing safely, schedule service online with Nalley Lexus Roswell and get a clear, warranty-backed plan.
