  1. Ultimate Brake Pad Guide: Best Low-Dust Performance Upgrades for Lexus IS F, RC F, GS F, and LC500

     

    Every day at Mod in Japan, we receive countless inquiries about recommended brake pad replacements for Lexus models like the RC F, GS F, IS F, LC500, and many others. Over the past decade, we've advised Lexus owners on the ideal brake pads suited to their needs.

    After extensive experience and customer feedback, we've identified three brake pads that we strongly recommend:

    • Project Mu Type NS-C

    • Project Mu Type PS

    • TOMS Racing Performer 600C

    In our latest YouTube video, we thoroughly review why these brake pads are exceptional choices for approximately 95% of the Lexus community—particularly those who use their vehicles as daily drivers with occasional spirited driving. If you frequently track your vehicle, these recommendations may not apply to your specific needs.

    These brake pads effectively address common issues Lexus drivers face with OEM pads and rotors, notably excessive dust, noise, and inconsistent braking performance.
