Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Understanding the difference between front and rear rotors on a 2013 Lexus IS 350 is critical for reliable stopping power and long-term savings. Front rotors typically handle more braking force because the vehicle weight shifts forward during deceleration, so they often wear faster and may require replacement more frequently than rear rotors. Rear rotors contribute to balance and parking brake function; uneven wear between front and rear can cause pull or reduced stability during emergency stops. At Stevinson Lexus of Frederick in Frederick, CO, our certified technicians measure rotor thickness, run-out, and pad condition to determine whether resurfacing or replacement is the best course.
