Lewi76 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 It all depends on how hard you use the brakes I'd guess a couple of thousand miles but I wouldn't go to low or you will wreck your discs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Anything over 2mm can be used again, but it does depend on how hard or liberal you are with the brakes. Manufacturers of brake components will often match disc and pad material, so if you fitted Brembo discs and Mintex pads, they wouldn't necessarily be working at maximum efficiency. The cost can be reasonable if you supply your own parts. Eurocarparts have frequently had 30% off offers this year. Most garages would supply the parts at retail prices plus their own small markup.
