The OEM brakes have more bite, but there's so much brake dust. The Akebono definitely do not bite as much, but they perform well under heavy braking (mountain driving), have little to no noticeable brake dust, and lasted longer.
They are legit I love the tread pattern and handle well I drive a Lexus es350
555 is a Japanese brand that makes high quality replacement tie rods, if needed. Comparable or better quality than OEM. I have them on my Lexus GX470
So glad I chose this instead of a Q60. Always a fun drive &gas in my opinion hasn’t been too bad. I drive down to SoCal a lot(4 hr drive) &a little under half tank in eco mode (sports mode through the grapevine) gets me there! Oil changes every 3k miles, prob will change out my cabin filter &filters soon. Purchased at 27k miles &now she’s at 50k miles ???? overall, a happy Lexus driver ???? it’s been a good year with this car!
Toyo AT3’s have been awesome for me! I have KO2s on my GX470 and I’m not mad at them, but will probably go to Toyos when it’s time!
Purchased x2 Goodyear Reliant All-Season 205/60R16 for my 01 Lexus ES300. Pretty good tire, very comfortable ride.
Got a Denso Reman, and my mechanic installed it and kept the car for a week to test. So far so good.
He commented that before the alternator replacement, volts would go low when the engine was warm. Now they're pretty stable.
Had em on my LS430, brake feel better, definitely a bit more noticeable bite
I have them on my Lexus ES300h and drove with them coast-to-coast across the entirety of Canada in the dead of winter, then back again in the summer. I found them to be really great performers in winter, even in nearly tire-high snow, and I never had a moment where I was worried about slipping or sliding, even through the Rockies in white-out conditions. HOWEVER... I find them to be too noisy in the summer. I can see the fuel efficiency drop on road trips in the summer as well, and I'm not sure I'd run them year-round again knowing what I know now.
I have a similar issue with Continental CrossContact LX20 Eco+ tire on my Lexus. Without any impact or road hazard tire went flat at about 6k miles on my new car. Never seen a tire in such bad shape.
