Default Brakes and Rotor Replacement

I'm relatively new to DIY's - I need to replace my brakes and rotors, I tried to purchase a set of EBC Stage 11 Brakes but they can't seem to tie it to the right brakes set asking where my vehicle was manufactured (It's Japan) and what the FMSI# is, but I can't seem to figure that out.

Would anyone have an idea of what the FMSI# is?

Thanks.

BTW my vehicles a 2010 IS250 AWD (and manufactured in Japan if that matters)

AFAIK all IS's are made in Japan. As far as FSMI. Anyone asking you that is silly. It means:

And who is they? Get the lexus PN for your brakes and cross reference it to the brand you want.

Thanks both for the replies.

What does it mean if it's US spec vs Canada spec (considering they're manufactured in Japan)?

Would I be getting the Canada spec considering it was purchased in Canada (and manufactured in Japan)?

I got the OEM part codes from the dealer:

04465-53040 Pad
04945-53050 Shim Kit
43512-30310 Rotor
04466-53010 Pad
04946-30110 Shim Kit
42431-30280 Rotor

Thanks!

US-Spec versus Canada-Spec is where the car was destined for, where the car was built isn't relevant (they're all from one of two factories in Japan). If it was sold new from a Lexus dealership in Canada, then it will be Canada-Spec.

The part numbers you listed are for Canada-Spec.
