Looking to replace rotors on an 07 IS250 AWD
Any suggestions? Found a set (front and back) from Performance Brakes.. Crossed drilled and slotted and total comes to about $250. Pads are going to be Akebono Ceramics. I am just looking for a decent set that will not brake the bank and is of good quality. Any help will be appreciated. I tried to go on Sewell to see what OEMs cost but could not find them.

My opinion, OEM brake pads are the best! Ive been told this by multiple Lexus and non Lexus mechanics.

Assuming you're not buying these for a race track then you don't want slotted (and you never, ever, want drilled unless it's to display at a car show, they're functionally inferior to every other possible choice)
You want blank rotors for normal street use.
First I'd make sure you actually need rotors- depending how you drive and how you've treated the car folks get quite a lot of miles out of a set but dealerships tend to say you need em anytime the pads are low, which just ain't true.
If you do need them, Sewell gets about $190 for a pair of OEM rotors.
Alternatively a pair of Centric/Stoptech Premium blanks for the 250 will probably run around $75-100 and likely work just as well.
