Default Touring Package Brake Pads and Non Touring Brake Pads

I've searched and did not find a definite answer if these pads were the same size or not. I read that the rotors were larger than the non touring models, and the touring package is also equip with "high friction" pads, but nothing about pad sizes. Was wondering if they are interchangeable?

My car with the touring package just tripped the brake wear sensor. So i read that once tripped, it needs to be replaced so those have been ordered. I am planning on getting those Akebono pads, but not sure if they will fit as I couldn't find anything in my search. Nowhere locally carries them so i would love to get a confirmation first before I order them online. Thanks in advance.

I recall the rear pads and calipers are bigger not sure about the front. Best way to call a Lexus dealer with your VIN and ask this question.

Default What Distinguishes a 2010 LS 460L with the Touring Package

How would you know if you had the touring package on your 2010 LS 460L? Is there any Distinguishing Badges, or build sheet codes? Someone had said they like the tour package wheels that I apparently have, does that mean I have the touring package?

Touring package, as known in MY2007-09 vehicles, no longer existed in 2010. Your wheels, if they came from the factory (which I presume is the case), were either a standalone option or part of the Appearance Package that was offered in 2010. In either case, I've seen no mention of larger brakes.

In 2010, Lexus offered a Sport Package. That one did have bigger brakes (Brembo, actually, taking it beyond the "old" Touring Package) and optional wheels, but these were unique to the Sport model (i.e., no longer the 5-spoke wheels).
