When I replaced my rear rotors, I was surprised to see that one of the ones on the vehicle did not have the adjusting hole. I think someone put on a cheap rotor somewhere along the way. The Lexus rear rotors I installed both had the hole.

8 x 1.25 is the bolt you need as everyone here said.
But here's a link on how to avoid headaches taking off the rear drum.

And yes...they are set-up like your ES300

After replacing the pads my wife tells me she has noticed the steering wheel vibrating when medium to hard breaking at 45mph+. So I'm going to replace the front rotors soon but while changing brake pads I saw the two bolt holes on the front rotor but didn't have a correct sized bolt handy to verify what size/thread pitch would work to separate the rotor from the hub. I will pick up a 8mm x 1.25 thread pitch bolt and give it a shot in two weekends when the rotors arrive but if someone definitively knows for the RX330 and could confirm it would be appreciated. Thanks.
