If you're looking for just standard blank rotors (not slotted or cross-drilled) I can recommend Carquest Wearever rotors. They've worked really well for me with Akebono brake pads. Dirt cheap as well, the premium ones are under $50 a piece.

If he gets the proper measurements I dont see why he HAS to buy from Lexus as opposed to aftermarket. As long as the measurements are good it will fit no?

Without part number, size or type everyone here is just spitting in the wind.

So I re-read this thread and its title; the OP is asking about replacement rotors for a F-sport BBK kit. I somehow missed that on the first pass through. No wonder the pricing was soooo high! LOL
