Brake pad longevity varies significantly depending on driving conditions. On motorways, brake pads can last up to 60,000 miles, while city centre driving with frequent stops may reduce their lifespan to just 25,000 miles or less.
Front brakes typically wear faster than rear brakes, especially in front-wheel drive vehicles, as they handle a higher percentage of braking load. Mechanics recommend replacing brake pads when pad material reduces to 3 millimetres thickness. Similarly, brake discs should be measured and replaced if they fall below the manufacturer’s minimum safe thickness specification.
