Get the best ones out there which is OEM they gave my 15es250 the best miles before replacement which is 125k
You are saving some $$ doing a DIY job...so spend an extra bucks and get the OEM parts or better which would be akebono proact(brake pads around 100$) and advics high carbon rotors(220$) which again is the oem rotors your lexus had.
I use ceramic Akebono pads and have noticed that my tires are much less brown and wheel less dusty than they use to be
I\u2019ve been using Akebono pads on my Mk4 20AE for a while and have been very happy with them. Very low dust. They don\u2019t have the initial bite of a stock pad but I\u2019ve never had an issue with the braking performance. I use them for hpde track days also. Additionally, very easy on rotors.
Slotted and drilled are nice, I own 3 9-3 Aeros v6 and is very hard do stop them, Akebono brakes and Slotted/drilled rotors are cost/effective for me. I definitely recommend it.
Changed to Centric high carbon rotors and Akebono pads no issues.
Akebono front brake pads
OEM rotors and akebono pads????
I like akebono pro act pads. Low dust, good performance
I've had the low dust OEMs before and have Akebono ASPs currently. The biggest difference is the initial bite that you get from OEMs. I started to prefer the lack of intial bite more for daily driving since the stopping power feels more linear with Akebonos unlike OEMs where you barely press it and it feels like you stomped on the brakes which is noticeable in stop-and-go traffic. Also, OEM has brake squeal when they're cold.
Nope, they don’t fit whatsoever. Return them. The correct pads have 2 holes on the top corners, which are for the pad retaining pins unique to the 2IS rear calipers. The 3IS went back to the standard floating caliper design, for which these pads MIGHT fit. These pads you picked up are guaranteed to not fit your 2IS.
