Brake pad replacement?
I uploaded pics of the drivers front, drivers rear, and passenger front brake pads. Approximately how much longer you think I can get out of them if I want to preserve the rotors?
When you guys did replace them, did you go OEM (brembos)? |

I'd suggest "just before" the metal wear indicators start scrapping your rotors....

For street driving, just before the squealers is fine. For Autocross when 1/3 of the pad is left. For Road Course at half pad.
