Stock Brakes on 2ss/rs

What is your experience in replacing these. More or less how many miles, because i just hit 15,000 in 2 years and i know they are brembros but they are sqeakin like crazy! Anytime i am touching the brake it's pretty bad. I don't ride the brakes and i don't drive like a bat outta hell. Was just wondering what everyone else's experience has been. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

It all depends on your driving habits. If you're hitting your squealers then it's time to replace. If the squeals are just from friction, you might just need to re-bed the brakes.

If you are driving the car normally 15K seems premature. Try bedding the brakes again as suggested, and maybe even put brake stop squeal on the backs of the pads. I did the brake stop on my Hawks HP+ and that worked for a while, but I drive on the track with them and HP+ are prone to noise anyway. I noticed my stock pads when I pulled them at 3500 miles had no lube on the pad back. They were just starting to make a faint squeal at low speed stops.
