Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The front rotors on a 2011 Lexus ES 350 typically take the brunt of braking force because the vehicle's weight shifts forward during deceleration, so front rotors often wear faster than rear rotors. Rear rotors handle less heat and stopping force but still play a crucial role in balance and parking braking. At Park Place Lexus Grapevine in Grapevine, TX, our technicians assess both front and rear rotors, measuring thickness, runout, and surface condition to recommend resurfacing or replacement. Choosing our dealership means factory-trained technicians, OEM rotors and pads, and documented quality control that preserves your Lexus warranty and resale value. We focus on long-term savings by preventing uneven wear that can damage calipers or suspension components. Take advantage of our transparent estimates and service specials, and schedule service easily online to keep your ES 350 stopping smoothly with minimal downtime.
