Default GS 300 Brakes

My car has 95k miles on it. I purchased it in November. It ha a history of service by the dealer. I changed all of the fluids and put in new lower ball joints. The rear brake pads were worn and the brakes had been done once before including resurfacing the discs.
on Monday I installed a new set of Power Stop drilled and slotted rotors and pads. After bedding them in I can say they are a significant improvement over stock. Better tires should improve it further. I love this car for what it was designed to do.
next I will do new plugs and wires. Sometime in the next year I will replace the radiator and cooling hoses..
two more years before I can get Historic vehicle plates. I love well designed things.
regards, Ann

I recently installed Power Stop pads and rotors on our IS and I’m happy with them as well. Congrats on the car.
