Our review of this rear brake kit finds it best for owners wanting a straightforward, OE-style refresh for late-model Lexus and Toyota sedans. The kit pairs Autospecialty stock replacement rotors with Z17 ceramic pads to restore original stopping feel without upgrades or modification. Installation is bolt-on ready and includes hardware, so a DIYer or technician looking to return a daily-driven 2013-2018 ES300h/ES350, 2013-2018 Avalon or 2012-2017 Camry to stock stopping performance will appreciate the simplicity and completeness of the package.

Key Features

• Z17 Ceramic Brake Pads: Provide a durable, low-noise ceramic compound that aims to match or surpass OE stopping power while reducing brake dust.
• Autospecialty OE Rotors: Stock replacement rotors are designed for a direct bolt-on fit to restore original rotor performance with no machining required.
• Complete Kit: Includes two rear rotors, one rear Z17 ceramic pad set and installation hardware so the job can be completed without sourcing parts separately.
• Vehicle Coverage: Fits a range of Lexus ES300h and ES350 model years plus Toyota Avalon and Camry years listed, simplifying purchase for common models.
• Warranty: Backed by a 24 month / 24,000 mile warranty for added confidence after installation.

Who It's For

This kit is for Lexus and Toyota owners who want a reliable, stock-feel brake replacement without performance upgrades; it is well suited to daily driven ES300h, ES350, Avalon and Camry models from the stated years and to DIYers comfortable with a rear brake job.

It is not aimed at track drivers or anyone seeking big performance gains, nor is it targeted at owners who need rustproofing or specialty coatings - some customers report concerns about rust resistance so those who prioritize corrosion protection may want a different rotor finish.
