How many KMS until you had to make your first brake swap? Please provide details on driving style, use and if you track your car.
Thanks in advance!

okay let me do the math here:
just replaced my back pads (first time) 78k miles = 126k kilometers
my front pads have never been replaced and have 9mm thickness left. My CBS says 26k miles remaining so that would get my fronts to 104k miles = 167k kilometers.
I don't track my car. I do some spirited driving but pick my spots carefully and I'm probably not using my brakes too much.
My daily commute is 40 miles round-trip, steady speed for the most part; I relax and don't tailgate.
