Wondering what the average life expectancy is for tires and brakes on an '05 Pacifica?

Question:
I have a 2005 Pacifica - 38,000 miles - and have not yet changed the tires or brakes. What's the general rule of thumb for life expectancy on tires and brakes? I think I'm pushing it??

Answers:

Has anyone ever had an 8-cylinder Firebird or Camaro that did better in MPG than its 6-cylinder counterpart?

Depends entirely on what you have it fitted with. Metallic brake pads? Semi-metallic? Ceramic? What load range and quality on the tires, and how aggressively do you drive?

OK all you Mercedes Proffesionals, can you tell me if Merc made a 4cyl E55 AMG?

What about maintenance? Do you rotate the tires when you should?

depends on how you drive...my wife's mustang (driven like a granny) still has the original pads on it at 60K miles. My SHO would eat up pads about every 15K miles.

Why does my truck burn so much fuel?

If you were able to use your original tires 40,000 miles you have done an exceptional job driving your car. Look at your tread wear bars that rum perpendicular to the circumference of the tire. The wear bars are the little raised humps between the tread bars. If the tread bars are even with the wear bars the tires need to be replaced.

New york motor vehical plate 80226PA 1998 ford truck is registered to whom?

As for brakes change the pads now with Wagner Quiet Stop pads. The reason is: If the pads wear to the wear warning scrapers and you fail to hear them your pads can wear into the steel backing plates ruining the brake rotors.
