I know there's a lot of variation to this, but how many miles does pads and rotors last?

Just need to know an estimate so I can keep my eyes on them.

Thanks,

Emilio in Vegas

between 18K and 35K miles for pads depending on vehicle weight, usage, etc. Rotors usually last 100K miles but this can vary too.

Front and rear rotors were almost gone for me at 42K on my disco. However, that was also the fist time the pads were switched. That could have worn them earlier than they should have been. I just switched pads and rotors all around at 79K. It was my first time ever doing this on any vehicle. Time consuming, but not extremely difficult. First one took me 7 hours including bearings, last one took me 2.

My 1999 Disco II just got new pads and rotors on all four corners at 40k miles.
