2008 IS250 RWD (X-type)
I need a replacement of the brake rotors and pads for 2008 IS250. Do I buy the OEM or are there better ones to choose from? I moved to Lebanon where the country is very mountainous, so I need better braking system, compared to brake needs when I was in California.

Centric Premium Blank Rotors would be highly suggested as a good OEM replacement. Even if it's mountainous, I don't think you'll see benefits of drilled/slotted/dimpled rotors.

I personally use Hawk Performance HPS pads and they've been great. Better stopping distances and consistent performance for daily road use.

Alternatives I've seen people using are EBC pads and EBC slotted/drilled rotors.
