How many miles did your teg go until you needed new brakes? So far I am almost at 38,000 and still doing good. How long did your brakes last?

115,000 miles, but I did almost all freeway driving in Texas. Rear pads still had plenty left.

That was the first time. They didn't need to get replaced until then. I use the freeway a lot and live in a small city.

Imagine my surprise when I read guys changing theirs at 30 and 50 thousand

I used the Fred Flinstone method of stopping

I saved on brake pads but my shoe bill was astounding
