Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit for 2007-2012 Lexus ES350 and Toyota

In this review of the TRQ rear brake pad and rotor kit, the bottom line is simple: this kit is for owners of 2007-2012 Lexus ES350, 2008-2012 Toyota Avalon, and 2007-2011 Camry who want a direct-fit, OE-replacement solution without fuss. The reviewer found the kit restores braking feel and installs like an OE part, with the single biggest reason to buy being the convenience of a complete rear kit that includes ceramic pads, rotors, hardware, and contact point grease for a straightforward swap that closely matches factory fit and function.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: The kit is made as an OE replacement so it drops into the rear of compatible Lexus and Toyota models with no modifications required.
• Ceramic Brake Pads: The positive molded ceramic pads deliver lower dust levels for cleaner wheels while maintaining consistent brake performance.
• Complete Kit: Includes a rear ceramic pad set, rear brake rotors, contact point grease and hardware so buyers get everything needed for a rear axle service.
• Application Specific Design: Rotors and pads are cast and finished to OEM-like tolerances to extend service life and reduce noise compared with generic parts.
• Solid Rotor Construction: The rear rotors are solid venting type with a 11.06 in (281mm) diameter matched to the vehicle fitment for predictable stopping power.

Who It's For

This kit is ideal for DIY mechanics and independent shops working on 2007-2011 Toyota Camry, 2008-2012 Toyota Avalon, or 2007-2012 Lexus ES350 who want a single-purchase rear brake solution that closely replicates factory components. It fits owners seeking quieter, lower-dust ceramic pads plus rotors that align with OE reference numbers to simplify ordering.

It is less suited to drivers who need high-performance track braking or heavy-duty commercial use, where specialized performance or slotted/drilled rotors and race compounds would be more appropriate. Also check vehicle-specific fitment information in the listing before purchase to confirm compatibility.
