when should i get new brake pads?

[samg1988]

theres about a fingers width left on the ones i have currently. and they squeak like hell.

should i just get them changed or get them copper greased?

whell do u get a slight vibration when braking , are the spongy if so get new ones mate

 

[samg1988]

bump. they dont seem spongy i dont think

try copper grease first. on the back of them, btw!

before spending any money, it's worth taking them out and (copper) greasing the backs to see if that helps - ?

don't know, but are they fitted with anti-squeak shims? maybe try a new set if they are

a finger's width suggests there's plenty of meat left on them

There a cut down the center of the pads they should be changed when the cut mark is no longer visiable. Few people do though
