I'm coming up on 10k miles and wondering when the pads will need replacing.

I always check the pads when I rotate the tires....Depends how aggressively you drive and brake. I've known some people who need to change their brakes every 30k-40k miles, and others who can last 2+ times as long. I don't think there's a good average number. Best practice is to just listen and feel for when they start going bad, then change them then.
Well, sure, I take a look at them periodically as well. Usually give everything (tires, brakes, suspension, axles, bushings, etc.) a good inspection when I have the wheel off, for whatever reason.I always check the pads when I rotate the tires....
My parts guys have noticed the same trend that I did..Depends how aggressively you drive and brake.

You have a loooong way to go unless you are hard on brakes.I'm coming up on 10k miles and wondering when the pads will need replacing.
