Best Answer

This depends on to many things to answer, but if I had to say the norm for the Car and light truck industry is....Then

Car: 30 - 50 K miles Front

40 - 70 k miles Rear Brakes

Truck: 20 - 40 K miles Front

25- 55K miles Rear Brakes

Replace pads when there about 3 to 1.5 mm of material left. After that, they can easily ruin you rotor. Especially if they are riveted on.

DON'T let your pads get down as low as 1.5mm - If you need to brake heavily one day, those pads will overheat and shed their lining in a flash - and you will crash !
