01 Lexus RX300 Brakes and Rotors

Asked by TheLexusGuy May 30, 2020 at 11:20 PM about the 2001 Lexus RX 300 FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I'm looking for brakes and rotors for my 2001 Lexus RX300. It's a FWD and the brake/rotor set I'm interested in (online) is AWD. Am I able to use an AWD set on my vehicle? Or does the set have to be specifically for FWD?

The front rotors are the same part numbers for either the FWD or AWD model. It's the rear rotors that are different and specific to the drive type. You will have to purchase a Front set and a rear set individually if you can't find the correct kit. I would not try and use the wrong size rotors on your vehicle. HTH's.

Hey, thank you guys for your advice. It's definitely narrowed my search so that I don't screw up on the rear brake/rotor ordering.
