13K miles ago I fitted falken 452's and ebc green stuff pads and ebc discs all round. Fronts have plenty of life, both tyres and pads and no lip on the discs, but rear pads are dead and about to be changed, and inside edges of rear tyres are slick.
For a 2.5 rear wheel drive car 13k miles is fairly average isn't it? I'd say the fronts could do maybe another 10k. Somehow I thought I'd be shelling out a lot more so was pleasantly surprised. Car is due an insp2 now so my thoughts are throw on same pads and tyres again and get the rear geo looked at too, maybe have the toe adjusted so it doesn't eat the inside of the tyres, as the other 3/4 of the tyre has over 4mm left. Saying that I'd suspect being on lower springs isn't helping.
What else should I have looked at suspension wise, bushes for example? Car is on 88800 miles so my thinking is preventative maintenance / if anythings in need of replacement to upgrade it a bit.
