How long has everyone gotten before changing for the first time? I imagine 22in wheels play a part of the life as well.

You guys are getting more than 50K miles before you changes pads/rotors? Seems like a lot of miles. Maybe I am just paranoid.

I got about 70k out of all 4 brakes. Front had 1 dragging pad that forced me to change the fronts. Rears has a little left on them. If that had not happened, probably could have gotten another 20k miles out of them.

Really depends on driving habits, towing etc.

On my 2015 Denali with 22s I replaced all at 42k miles, fronts were shot, rears had some time left. Disappointed in the short life. I also feel like part of the issue is when the transmission down shifts when coming to a stop it Causes the vehicle to lunge forward sometimes needing to push on the brakes harder.
