Brake Pad Wear at 25K miles

fuzzywuzzy · 07-04-2012, 02:23 AM

Wow... So last weekend I finally got around to changing my front pads on the sport package brakes. I have 25k miles on the car and brake hard all the time so I was expecting to see barley any or just a small amount of pad left but not 3/4

Still changed them out because I already had the new pads but could have gone another 15k easy on the old ones.

Not bad. On my last car I would just drive it til I couldn't stand the squealing anymore. It would be nice to know what people are getting out of the OEM ones with normal DD type of driving.
