1, look at the thickness
A new brake pad thickness - generally in 1.5cm or so, with the use of constant friction thickness will gradually become thin. Professional
Technicians suggest that when the naked eye to observe the thickness of the brake pads has been only 1/3 of the original thickness (about 0.5cm) or so, the owner will
should increase the frequency of self-inspection, ready for replacement. Of course, due to the design of the wheel hub, individual models do not have the conditions for visual inspection, and need to dismantle the tyre to complete the process.
The tyre needs to be dismantled in order to do this.
Each brake pad has a raised mark on both sides, the thickness of this mark is about two to three millimetres, which is the limit of the thinnest replacement of brake discs.
This is the thinnest limit of the brake disc that can be replaced, and if the thickness of the brake pad is already parallel to this mark, it must be replaced. So when the brake pad
When the thickness of the brake pads is close to this mark, the owner should always be ready to observe, but in the case of not dismantling the tyres through the naked eye is very
