Brake pad thickness... when to replace? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be fixit2002 on  Mon Aug 18 02:10 CST 2008 [RELATED]

A quarter inch is certainly enough thickness to last you a few thousand more miles or normal driving concidering they're probably not much more than a half inch thick to begin with when new. But there's one thing I would caution you about. They don't always wear the same and just because one wheel has a quarter inch pad thickness doesn't mean the other wheel also has a quarter inch. Could be more. Could be less. When they start getting thin always check both wheels.
