Brake pad mm thickness??

[ebumdude]

So I got my car serviced from Toyota a couple weeks back.

On the invoice, it lists the thickness in mm's of the brake pads.

Right now I have 9mm thickness in the front and 10mm thickness in the rear. I tried to do a search, and I forgot to ask the dealer this while I was there, at what thickness would you have the pads changed??

Thanks for all input.

Still to lazy to read your Service Manual, eh?

Front - new 12 mm, 1 mm minimum
Rear - new 11 mm, 1 mm minimum

9mm and 10 mm are the same as .9cm and 1.0 cm. An inch is 2.5cm. Your pads sound as if they are about new! No worries for a while>

Sweet guys. Thanks for the replies. I am just used to driving an SUV before the Camry, when I had to change the break pads every 6 months or so.

Why a centimeter conversion to try to tell him he has good brake pads?

To put it into comparison to an INCH

You both crack me up.

Can someone convert the brake pad thickness to yards for me?

FYI
1 yard = 91.44cm
9mm = 0.9cm = 0.00984251968503937 yard

How about furlongs?

[rsb1445]

9 millimeters = 4.47387258 × 10-5 furlongs
