Hey guys...

My rear brakes have almost 70K on them so I took my car into the dealer to have them checked. They tell me that they have close to 70% of the pad left... can this be right?

How many KMs are the rear brakes normally good for?

2003 ZX3 French Blue; 25/35% tint; shorty antenna; apc clear corners; JVC MP3/CD HU; Sherwood 180W BP Series AMP; Alpine 11-band DSP with BBE processing; 4x Pioneer TS-A6870R 6" x 8" speakers; custom-made 4AWG engine grounding wires

They could be right. It really depends on how much/where you drive. I've had my rear brakes checked and at 95K they said I was ok. Im looking to replace them soon anyways. probably another 10K....
