Brake pads are steel plates holding a high-friction metal composite. Front brake pads are positioned at the front wheels. Front brake pads are clamped against the front wheel rotors to generate the friction and resistance needed to stop. The intense friction causes front brake pads to wear down. The average vehicle has the front brake pads wear down faster than the rear brake pads. Front brake pads should be replaced when worn down to 3mm or .1 inch thick. Most vehicles need new front brake pads installed every 25,000 to 50,000 miles depending upon the severity of use.
