Yes aluminum rims? if so your aluminum rims ahve vulcanized themselves to your stell brake rotors. this happens with dissimilar metals. only force and heat will make it come off. you can try yourself or have a shop do it. at home jack up car , remove lug nuts. place car on jack stands with the offending wheel in the air. you will have to throw a large heavy solid wooden block to dislodge the stuck wheel. it is not easy or pretty to do.

Open the hood of the ES300 and prop it open.

Look at the headlight assembly from the top down. Depending on your model year, there may be a plastic panel covering the top of the headlight assembly. If this is present, remove it by lifting all of the plastic clips around the edges and lifting it off.

Remove rear brake rotors on a dodge ram 3500

Brake rotors are pressed on just enough to where they shouldn't come off when you are changing the tire .They are held on by the same studs that hold your time on . Remove the tire and tap the rotor with a wooden or plastic malord (hammer) it should come right off. Some car makers put some small bolts on them .when you pull the tire off you can see the small bolts if they are there ,just unscrew them and the rotor will come off .

Right rear drum area

You need to knock out the old ones with a hammer or use a press.
to install them you will need either a press or a very strong air gun you can also use the hammer and pound them in. You might have to remove it from the spindle area by taking out the four bolts in the back of the drum then you can handle it better.

Shaking in the rear of car when accelerating this is a lexus gs 430 with only 24700 miles

It's a possible that one of the rear tires is out of balance. The vehicle has very low miles put on it. So, everything should still be covered under warranty.
Have the tires check out. If this doesn't solve the problem, take the Lexus to the dealership. The warranty should cover any problems.
