2022-2026+ Lexus IS500 F SPORT Performance (XE30) Carbon Ceramic Brake Kit
Official Warranty: 1‑year free replacement for quality defects or coating issues under normal (non-track) use.
2022-2026+ Lexus IS500 F SPORT Performance (XE30) Carbon Ceramic Brake Kit — OEM-Size Replacement
The 2022-2026+ Lexus IS500 F SPORT Performance uses a larger factory brake package than lower XE30 IS trims, with 356mm front rotors and 323mm rear rotors behind the OEM 19-inch wheel package. This StopFlex OEM-size carbon-ceramic kit replaces those iron discs with carbon-ceramic rotors, matched pads, hats, and floating hardware while retaining the factory caliper locations. The payoff for IS500 owners is lower rotating and unsprung mass, reduced brake dust on the open 19-inch wheels, and more stable pedal feel when the 5.0L V8 is driven hard on repeated high-speed stops.
- Built only for the 2022-2026+ Lexus IS500 F SPORT Performance XE30 brake package with 356mm front and 323mm rear rotor sizing.
- OEM-size design keeps the IS500 factory calipers and wheel fitment strategy instead of converting the car to an oversized big-brake layout.
- Carbon-ceramic rotors reduce iron brake dust and rotor mass on a rear-drive V8 sedan that uses its front brakes heavily during repeated 60-120 mph deceleration.

For OEM replacement orders, StopFlex builds around the factory rotor specification shown for this vehicle. Front floating-caliper setups require manual review before production. If the car uses aftermarket calipers such as Brembo, AP Racing, Alcon, or Wilwood, the order can still be built, but the exact caliper model, pad shape, and rotor dimensions must be confirmed before production.
Carbon ceramic rotor diameter sets the smallest wheel that clears the caliper. Confirm your wheel diameter and spoke clearance with StopFlex before ordering.
Why StopFlex CCB
Lower Unsprung Mass
StopFlex carbon-ceramic rotors are engineered to reduce rotor mass versus comparable iron discs, helping the suspension react cleaner and the steering feel more precise.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide matrix is built for stable braking behavior at temperatures that can push iron rotors into heavy fade.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Carbon ceramic does not form orange flash rust after rain, washing, or storage, keeping the visible rotor face cleaner behind open wheels.
Long Street-Service Potential
In normal road use with matched pads and proper bedding, StopFlex CCB rotors are designed for far longer service life than typical iron replacement rotors.
Low Visible Dust
When paired with matched StopFlex pads, the system produces very low visible brake dust compared with conventional iron rotor and pad combinations.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Appearance
StopFlex's proprietary coating creates a bright, high-end ceramic-glaze finish with subtle glaze texture and a more premium visual character behind open wheels.
Street-Usable Cold Bite
Street Spec and Track-Day Spec rotors are designed for normal first-stop road use, including cold-weather operation. Motorsport Spec is the competition-focused exception.
Continuous Fiber Reinforcement
Long-fiber carbon ceramic construction improves structural strength and thermal durability versus chopped-fiber approaches.
Custom Rotor Hat Color
Every StopFlex OEM replacement order can be built with a custom rotor hat color, giving the carbon ceramic rotor package a cleaner match with the wheel, body color, and overall build style.
Heat Management Note
Carbon ceramic rotors tolerate extreme surface temperature, but they do not remove every heat-management requirement. During repeated hard stops, heat can still soak into pads, fluid, seals, calipers, wheels, and nearby components. For long track sessions, mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving, brake cooling and high-temperature fluid are still recommended.
Street / Track-Day / Motorsport Rotor Options
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.

FAQ
Will this kit fit every XE30 Lexus IS?
No. This page is only for the 2022-2026+ Lexus IS500 F SPORT Performance with the listed 356mm front and 323mm rear rotor sizes. IS300, IS350, and non-matching F SPORT brake packages require separate fitment verification.
Will it work with the factory IS500 wheels?
The kit is built around the OEM IS500 rotor diameters and factory caliper positions, so it is intended for the stock 19-inch wheel package. If the car has aftermarket wheels, confirm barrel clearance, spoke clearance, and the exact front and rear rotor sizes before ordering.
Does the rear electronic parking brake still work?
Yes, the kit is designed as an OEM-size rear replacement using the correct 323mm rear rotor format, hat, pads, and hardware for the IS500 application. It does not require deleting the factory rear parking-brake function when ordered for the correct vehicle configuration.
Why switch from the factory iron rotors on an IS500?
The IS500 is heavier and faster than the four- and six-cylinder XE30 IS models, so repeated hard stops put more heat into the 356mm front rotors. Carbon-ceramic rotors handle repeated thermal cycles with less fade, create much less visible dust, and remove weight at the wheel end compared with iron discs.
