OEM Brake Replacement

[Dave-T]

With normal driving how many miles are you guys getting on your front and rear OEM brakes? Also when replacing the OEM brakes are you replacing pads and rotors, replacing pads and turning down rotors or just replacing the pads?

have 58500 on the first set fromt he factory so far, never did do front's or rears.

50,000 to 60,000 miles would be a good estimation..
Upgraded my brakes at 27,000 and had more than 50% pad left..

I have always gotten 100K+ miles out of pads and usually turn the front rotors at least once on all Panthers I have had during the first 100K.....mostly highway driving though!!:bows:

Likewise, I did not wear out my OEM brakes, I upgraded to an improved system. 75K on the ODO, and they looked (and worked) just fine. If I was rebuilding the OEM stuff, the rotors would need to be turned, but not severly.

Got about 32000 on original brake pads, although we are second owner of the MM. Nearly all our driving is city. Front rotors were turned, rears were siezed on and had to be replaced. Replaced rear rotors with same as stock, all four pads were replaced with Hawk High Performance Street pads.

This is a little less mileage that we usually have gotten from brake pads on Crown Vics and other cars we have owned.
