jack it up take off the wheel look at the brake pads if they r about the same or close to the medal backing they r glue to they gone.. most start out new with like a half inch of pad & when it gets to like a 1/4 inch they gone much pass this point u run a chance of them grinding the rotors & when that happens its costly i alway just look at how thick it is compare to the backing that there come on & best to check the right side for they wear faster & the back side of the rotor is most always les sthan the front u can really see the back so if its down a round a 1/4 its time
