Should I replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2010 Lexus IS 350 C?
Replace both only if rotors are at or below minimum thickness, heat-checked, or out-of-spec; otherwise pads-only with rotor resurfacing (if within spec) is acceptable.
We mic your 2010 Lexus IS 350 C rotors and compare to the stamped minimum to decide. If rotors are in spec and surfaces are clean and true, new pads with proper bedding can restore performance. If rotors are thin or uneven, replacing them with pads maintains stopping power and helps prevent noise or vibration.

- Heat spots/lip or runout determine replace vs. resurface
- Pads-only is fine when rotor health is verified
