Hi...when I had my car serviced recently Steel Wings told me depending on how hard you brake normal replace is 2 times pads to one set of rotors.

Than He laughed and told me ...not you...one to one..and proceeded to show me the wear on my rotors...mmm..
Since my wife does not drive the car...my heavy foot having fun and stopping hard. Saving money to do in the fall..
Lol

Just replaced the pads on mine at 44,000km

Suspect that is the second set and the rotors are just over min thickness

So in20,000km I'll need new rotors and pads

58.000 Km: 1st rotors, one set original pads, 1 set EBC Redstuff (changed after one year, fried them on Red Bull Ring), now EBC Yellowstuff, no trackday yet but like them.
