yep... don't even bother with rear passenger if you got the wheel on. I was able to slip the digital vernier caliper in the notch on top of the caliper between the dust shield and the brake caliper on the rear driver side.

It measured 10.85mm, so I am getting close to the minimum rotor thickness of 10.4mm. I would imagine the passenger side is a similar thickness.

So how long do I have left? I don't drive the car much as it is. I don't think the break lining light has come on yet either.

It sounds like stock rotors and Axxis pads are the way to go? Where is the best place to procure these items for the lowest price?

I was told the fronts were done recently. I can check the service history, but I will probably go measure them anyway for piece of mind.
