my 507 with about 30k miles is starting to squeak(brakes)

what sort of mileage are you guys getting out of OEM pads?

thanks

30-35k is about all I have seen with street driving. My 507 got all new brakes at 33k, rears seem to go a bit longer than fronts but not a lot.

did you go oem with the replacements? Cost?

I am interested to know is the Brembo pad the same as the Mercedes, I would have thought it would be since they are the brake supplier.
The main reason I am asking is the price difference.

Another good thing to know is what is the the material thickness of the new original pads.

Switched to EBC, had reds and now blue. Plenty left on my reds but I switched rotors, I feel 35k is typical mileage all around. I've put 50k miles on car since I got it and it had new pads when I bought it. Brembo is the caliper supplier not so sure of pad supplier. But with 507's they have what 390mm rotor on front and 360mm on rear, or is rear same?

Mine needs to be done and I've had these pads for almost 40k. At some point you'll wear down to the sensors and get a notification on the dash.

I did, FCPEuro is about the best price you can get - I have a black series now and did the brembo's which were a decent price. The P31/507 front rotors are the most expensive it seems oem (rears are cheap) but the brembo 360mm replacements are good value and I just stayed OEM pads.

The oem mercedes fronts are about 1200 each. The non p31/507 rotors are also bolt on, the one piece ones, if you just want to be cheap, they are 200 each.
