Brake pad thickness... when to replace? 850

Hey Lee,

Thanks for the pointer to your DIY fix. I'm not the best solder-slinger in the world, but my father-in-law is so we may give that a try.

The brakes *aren't* squealing yet. The pads are somewhere between 0.25 and 0.3 inches and I'm just wondering how low I can let them go (and if they do squeal when they need replacing... of if I'll just hear calipers grinding into the rotors).

Thanks again,
Scott
