New Brake Pads help pls?

[andyGbeatz]

the brake wear indicator came on last night...

1st question - how long before they need changing have I got much life left in em?

2nd question - Its payday tomorrow thankfully! will be buying replacements this week.

This is the first time I've come to replace em. Can anyone share some advice? any recommendations, can afford to splash out a little.

any links would be great - at work too busy to look myself..

Thanks

I would get them changed ASAP - don't leave it. Half the time the wear sensor doesn't even work, and when it does it comes on too late. Mine were wrecked and the light still hadn't come on. Total piece of piss to change if you have even half a grain of common sense.

Ferodo DS2500 are the kiddies to fit. About £100 a set, from Badger5 on here amoungst other places. Search for that, if you're too busy to do that (but not post the question), then tough.
