Regular maintenance is key to extending the lifespan of your brakes. This includes regularly checking the brake pads and rotors for wear and tear, as well as getting them replaced when needed.

A

Be mindful of your driving habits. Avoid frequent and unnecessary hard braking, as this can put added stress on your brakes and cause them to wear out quicker.

S

Consider upgrading to high-quality brake pads and rotors. While they may be more expensive upfront, they can last longer and save you money in the long run.

M

Don't ignore any unusual noises or sensations coming from your brakes. These could be signs of a larger issue that needs to be addressed, so make sure to get them checked by a mechanic.

Properly break in your new brakes. This means avoiding hard braking for the first few hundred miles and gradually increasing your braking pressure. This can help prevent premature wear and tear.
