$234 for 2 front rotors. I was going to call them and try to get some details.

Not really its actually $225 when I bought it they raised it:

Its the same exact rotors that Lexus sells over-the-counter. Branding isnt free.

Here is the link where I bought mine:

Came direct from Brembo in CA drop shipped to me.







The oem bembo brake pads were a different story however cheapest I found fronts were for $300. These were legit, I would be worried about china spark plugs however...

Thanks man, that's a real steal. I think I need pads (which I already have a replacement for) but when I saw the price on the rotors......I figured, what the hell. Keep them on the shelf or whatever.

That seller is legit, I can attest to that. $434 for all four shipped. Note 'Made in Italy' imprinted on boxes. Last two pics show Raybestos (China) on the left, Brembo on the right. The manufacturing differences are noteworthy when examining closely.

Thats what I use. With all the track time why buy from the dealer. You are simply buying directly from the supplier Lexus get it from . Just had my rear done last week. Track day Saturday !! and next Saturday too !!! They are great rotors

I run through rotors as fast as I change my oil to due track time. I've bought many sets from this guy. They are great rotors. As a Canadian, I get them shipped to the USA border, then I drive across to get them. Amazing deal.http://m.ebay.com/itm/151733058041
