I went and paid with taxes the back brakes, 68.00 for my lexus to be installed today.
I was told i needed akebono pro act ultra premium brake pads.

So i found them on amazon and they were way cheaper but the site says they WONT fit my car.

Who is right?

check the part number that's for your car and make sure what you bought has same part number

amazon doesn't know anything about cars (they also posted a front lip to fit 2006-2009 models) so most likely amazon is wrong, but still double check

dont go to amazon if anything looking for a simple brake pad and rotor setup

that wont cost you an arm and a leg

go to this site:

or

for a simple blank rotor and Hawk HPS setup go to:

I skipped amazon. You guys were right. The only thing positive about what i saw was the reviews.

Didnt even need to have new brakes so that was a waste. They were still about half good. STILL
must have made some difference for some reason or another as my brakes were less spongy and much more firm. Im putting on the blizzaks today with alignment and everything, so maybe that will up the stopping power. I tend to drive a little to fast so good brakes is a must.
