Lexus parts reviews

I would just buy the Aisin timing belt kit TKT-031 and then seals from the dealership (or an online Lexus/Toyota OE website)

The Aisin kit will have OE parts, where as other brands probably won't (Dayco definitely not, Continental is a mixed bag)

Gabriel are quality parts, I put their struts on my LS400. It isn't going to make your ride worse, it'll make your ride more controlled, with less roll, squat or dive, as it isn't worn out.

Just go to Rockauto and get the Aisin Timing Belt and Water Pump kit, its like $170 and you're getting OEM parts.

But I would do a Lexus and go the extra mile for the Toyota OEM TKT Aisin kits for timing belt/pump/tensioner replacement.

I have custom drilled rotors and Stoptech/Centric Posi-Quiet pads combined with Stoptech SS lines on my LS430. I'm very happy with the combo but I would not recommend those rotors if you're looking for longevity. I would stick with regular blanks or slotted only if you really want that stopping power and longevity.

I felt the difference immediately in terms of grip and also road noise ( of which I was most presently surprised). Had a couple rainy days and I can say I have never experienced tires that can grip so well in the rain. These tires however I never had an issue in terms of grip they just love to hug the road and make the car feel so planted.

Michelin xice3 are surprisingly quiet and grippy on the dry.

Get regular OEM rotors, they're pretty good from Lexus.

Continental wintercontact si is damn good value for money and outperforms blizzaks. I use them on my rwd car and there great. Definitely recommend them.

I put the Monro-matics on my 99 es300 a few years ago, one winter later I was back to replacing them. Monroe is generally my go to brand, but I will no longer buy their economy line.
