IS300 Rotor?

[Rtstrider]

I have an 03 IS300 with a scoured rear driverside rotor. The rotor has around 93K on it so I'd be guessing it may not be turnable. My question is...I'm looking at three options.

Option 1: Dealer rotor ($160) plus Dealer Pads

Option 2: Powerslot rotors ($200) w/ Hawk HPS pads ($50)

Option 3: Powerslot Cryo rotors ($250) w/ Hawk HPS pads ($50)

Who makes the dealer rotors/pads? Maybe I can get the same make but find it elsewhere for a lower price? What is the best option in your experiences/opinions?

Why buy fancy-boy brakes for the rear? Do is as cheap as possible with Duralast and move on.

Alright, well I would like to at least replace it with something that's as good if not better than whats on there now

I've heard Brembo makes awesome blanks...Any other reccomendations?

Brembo blanks and Raybestos QS pads -- will work like a gem.

I've used Raybestos and dealer pads on my old ES300...I....HATED the Raybestos pads! WAYYY too much dust and very little bite. I'm still going with dealer pads

Get some rotors with a 2yr warranty and ceramic pads and you will have great stopping, not much dust and saved a lot of money.

Did you try the Raybestos QuiteStop ceramic pads? I have been using them and with little dust. BTW this thread should move to the maintainence folder... Admins around.

Yes they were the Quietstops.
