Default IS350 Rear Calipers

Can one use IS350 rear calipers on an IS250 without using IS350 rotors. I ask because this would be a simple bolt on without having to cut/modify the dust shield? Thanks in advance.

It won't work. I was helping my friend change his seized rear calipers on his IS250 AWD. Carquest delivered us the parts but gave us IS350 rear calipers by mistake. We tried to make it fit and it just didn't. When the caliper was bolted on, we couldn't fit the brake pads in.

^Agreed! There is a difference; plus I believe you have to use the IS350 dust shield if I remember right.
