I'm easy on the peddle

[stung cb]

I'm not a mad man on the brake peddle. About how many miles can I expect on front/rear pads on my GT2?

I have 34K plus and the pads are still good. It's a big, heavy car, so I don't know how far I'll get on these OE pads. But I'm anticipating at least well into the 40K miles range.

Since you have the huge Brembro's, I would imagine at least 50K miles but probably more especially if you are easy on the brakes.

I have had at least 4 cars now with Brembro brakes. I had a Regal GS and even at over 20K miles, the pads still looked like they had most of their pad material left.

I am not sure what the pad material is for the Brembro's but I think they may be some sort of ceramic pad based on how little brake dust I am seeing. This will also extend pad life a lot.

I have 25K miles and just changed pads (because of the brake vibration issue) and there was a ton of pad material left. I'd guess 50K is possible.

They're really easy to change too.

I thank you folks for the input. I won't put but 6-7K mile per year on this GT2 so I should be good to go for 5-6 years.
