Nokian Encompass worked wonders on family's ES 350
Lexus ES parts reviews
They're Michelins, they'll be fine.
Michelin puts a lot of effort into making a really high quality tire.
Get the best ones out there which is OEM they gave my 15es250 the best miles before replacement which is 125k
You are saving some $$ doing a DIY job...so spend an extra bucks and get the OEM parts or better which would be akebono proact(brake pads around 100$) and advics high carbon rotors(220$) which again is the oem rotors your lexus had.
Honestly I have used these rotors on my car they work perfectly fine they also come with 10 year limited wararnty. These rotors are not any worse than the expensive brands the only difference is the price. If you don't feel comfortable using these that's totally up to the individual but these have a lot of good reviews and so far I'm impressed with the stopping power these provide. They are drilled though so maybe not as tough as the non drilled ones however the holes do help with stopping I can vouch they stop my car a bit better than the OEM non slotted ones.
I have a 2016 300h and was actually doing the rotors just today. Idk if the 350 and 300h share braking components but if they do be aware that the rear rotors may need their parking brake adjusted to even be able to get the rotors off. That little rubber grommet has to be at the 6:00 position and you have to inch a gear down to adjust it.
Currently have Goodyear Wintercommands on my '06 Lexus ES. Last ones were Bridgestone Blizzaks. I think I prefer the Goodyears, they handle quite well under acceleration. They were a good price too.
For spark plugs, denso or bust
The few times I’ve being to the Lexus dealer ( certified car ) I see more dealer people eating snacks and drinking coffee than customers. I don’t take snacks even tho they tell me it’s free.
