I have a 2016 Civic Touring. I've had great luck with Honda brakes in the past but I'm at about 55k miles and just checked for the first time. The pads front and back still look new. I thought about upgrading the pads at least but I can't find wear or a flaw to give me an excuse! How long have your braked lasted?

2017 with 32.5k miles and same dilemma. The pads are still good. Only reason why I’m not upgrading to BBK is cause of the longevity of the oem brakes

Arrgh! Same reason I got rid of a Corolla several years ago. I couldn't brake anything. And it was incredibly boring. Maybe I could get some used brakes from someone and I would have a reason to upgrade! :^)

At least love driving this Civic. It's a pain in the ass to get in and out of at my age (let's not speak of my physical health here) but I love absolutely everything else.

I just replaced front and rear brakes on my 2016 Touring at 60K. Although, the rears didn't need to be replaced. I just did it so I didn't have to get my hands dirty a second time.

I'm almost at 100k with factory brakes. I have developed some studdering in the front rotors from pad deposits but pad lift is still at least 50%.. I drive a lot of highway miles tho.

I ran out of rear pad at 70k. Unfortunately both the squeal bars broke off the pad before they made any noise and the rotors were ruined. Not a big deal though since they were warped for the last 60k.

I changed the front rotors and pads at 100k due to rotors being scuffed enough to pulse annoyingly when lightly braking. Pads were still at ~30-40%.
