Long Beach is also another airport I'd Consider if Orange County is too far or more expensive.

LAX blows arse.
First, the circle drive at arrivals/departures is a dang zoo. It can take an hour to get around on the wrong day.
Second, it's a big city, allow at least an hour if you are getting in the car. If you don't know that city, maybe more. LA traffic is worse than Chicago or New York.
Third, as others have mentioned, there is a bus to the rentals and it takes the same circle drive. Give this A LOT OF TIME.
Bottom line I would give it AT LEAST two hours from La Brea if not three, and that's from leaving La Brea to TSA. I don't know your pre-check status. Do not cut it short here.
Alternate strategies:
1. Change your flight to Long Beach, Orange County, etc... other airport.
2. Take the Fly-Away Bus downtown from LAX and rent a car downtown

this fricking airport is a shitshow LOL
completely up for grabs
thankfully we got thru with a few minutes to spare
traffic from the tar pits was fine but the proceedings grind to a halt at LAX

I've found my LAX experiences to depend greatly on time of day and airline. Delta was a mess over at T2 during the recent construction but Jetblue was fine over in T4 or T5. I'll be flying on Delta in a week through there so I'll provide an update from a connecting passenger perspective

I always carry a piss bottle in the car in LA.

It costs more but I'd much rather deal with John Wayne whenever possible.

Last Wednesday, it took me 57 minutes to fly from PHX to Lax. Then it took me 1:45 minutes to collect one checked bag, get on rental car bus and get to car. Traffic between terminals was horrendous. Returning car on Friday afternoon was much smoother. good luck. I hate LA.
