Dude search is your friend. I just posted something about squealing the other day. As far as changing your brakes. Most tire places check them free. For changing the rotors, its not necessary but at least get them resurfaced. Anything ceramic will have lower dust as far as brake pads go. Check Sewell Lexus. You can register as a Club Lexus member and get a discount. There shipping and customer service is great!

Know the difference between break and brake.
Also "where do I get those LOW DUST PAD?".... You mean pads... Unless of course you want one. In which you should have written: Where do I get a low dust pad?
Also no need to yell at us with your caps lock
To answer your questions. Get pads from sewell. No need to change rotors during a pad change less rotors require this but if you ask Kurtz rotors don't go bad less you drive like this guy below in the youtube video.

Change them when they're bad? No point changing your brake pads just because you think you should....

There is no reason to resurface rotors when making a routine pad change... all that does is waste rotor life (or worse- increase stopping distance if it's not done properly). Unless there's something wrong with them there's no reason to do anything at all to the rotors. Put on new pads, bed them properly, and go.Originally Posted by 509IS350

As others have noted, change when the pad is about worn out. For some people that's 20,000 miles... for some people that'd 50,000 miles. Depends on how they drive. Min spec is 1 mm, so if it's down to that (or down to 2mm if you wanna be paranoid/proactive) then change it. If it's more, don't. Most places do free checks.
And yes, get the low dust pads.
