Original Lexus Brake Rotors

As the grip plate of your Lexus' brake system, the brake rotors, or what are commonly referred to as rotor discs, are a detailed component to your braking system.

Brake rotors are the metallic cylinder discs that are visible behind your car's wheels. Basically, they are the plates that the brake calipers grip the brake pads to when the brake pedal is compressed by the driver. A simple system, brake rotors come in a variety of designs including blank/smooth, drilled, slotted, and drilled and slotted.

The most common rotors for commuter cars are the blank and smooth. They are for passenger vehicles that maintain lower speeds. For high-performance vehicles or larger vehicles, the drilled, slotted, and drilled/slotted variation are the go-to choice. Whether these rotor types have a spiral of drilled holes and or the open slots, they allow more water and grime to pass though the rotors when in motion, allowing less gunk build up and better stopping power.

Signs of Failing Rotors on Your Lexus

Rotor issues are common, and some problems can occur between 30,000 and 70,000 miles. If you think you are experiencing rotor issues during your commute, look out for:

• Grinding when braking
• Pulling or jerking to one side when braking
• Cracks or score marks in rotor plate
• Vibration in the steering wheel when braking
• A pulsating brake pedal
