2004LTGUYANDGIRL -> RE: 2003 Trailblazer Breaks and rotors (1/9/2008 8:30:19 AM)

normally on a vehicle, the front brakes wear out first. my trailblazer has 4 wheel disk brakes. i havent replaced them yet and i have 65,000
it all depends on what type of driving you do( do you drive through hills alot? or tow a trailer? or do you drive on a flat road to and from work?) theese are some factors as to when you should replace brake pads.
brake rotors usually last 3 brake jobs. they have to be re-surfaced every time you get new pads. that usually comes with the service, or if you know someone that can do brakes a shop will turn them for around 10-20 bucks per rotor
if your rotors are too thin, then your looking at 35-55 bucks per rotor depending on what model trailblazer you have
dont just change brakes because you think you have alot of miles, do it when the pads start screeching but before they start grinding or you will need to buy new rotors
i hope this was enough help for you as i do my own brakes and worked for midas in the past
