Akebono ACT1212 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad Set Please consider that I leave in Southern California, driving 2010 Lexus ES350 at 90K miles.Reviews for all of the following products;Centric Parts 120.44146 Premium Brake Rotor with E-CoatingCentric Parts 120.44144 Premium Brake Rotor with E-CoatingAkebono ACT1222 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad SetAkebono ACT1212 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad SetCentric Parts 117.44083 Brake Disc HardwareCentric Parts 117.44087 Brake Disc HardwareAll of Centric rotors and Akebono Ceramic brake pads fit perfect, front and back.The brake felt smoother after 2 weeks. Please allow the brake pads to get used to the rotors.But for the first 2 weeks, I felt the braking distance is much longer than before. It seems fine now. (Maybe I am getting used to new braking distance.)Owners of 2007~2011 Lexus ES350;After the replacements, the clicking noise from the front brake pad/caliper was gone, which was there from day 1 in my case. I believe many of you are aware of this clicking noise. (The noise was coming from the front brake pad/caliper, when I was changing gear from Drive to Reverse or Parking to Reverse.) Maybe my mechanic did something. I would not know. Anyway, the noise is gone.Prime members, you don’t need to check out other web sites. I had already done that.Nobody can beat this price including SHIPPING.Check up list (?) might help you.- Please check up the part number for compatibility, front and rear, etc.- Please DO NOT forget to purchase Brake Disc H/W.- Please check the manufacturing date for the rotors. 2015? Really? Is this amazon-outlet? 1 of the rotor was back-ordered and delivered 1 month later, which was manufactured in May 2015. I returned it due to the condition of the rotors. The surface of the rotor was chipped and scratched and they were deep. As you receive the rotor, please check the surface of the rotors. If you compare 2 rotors at the same time, it would be easier for you to find something faulty.And if you want to return rotors, please try not to use UPS DROP BOX. Due to the weight of the item, you might damage someone else’s belongings or the rotors. Read Less
