I just had my car service from dealer and it pass with flying color, except the PCCB pads wear measurement seem lower than expected. My front is 5 mm and rear 7 mm pads remaining, question is "is it time to change out the front pads? my rotors are in perfect condition at this time.
The rule of thump in this forum is change out the pads at 50% wear, is it true new pads are about 13 mm? if so, my front need to replace and the rear is borderline at this time. Please chime in if you've change your pads lately, also where is the best place to buy OEM pads with the lowest price? thanks in advance everyone.

I don't have PCCBs, but from what I've read here, you need to replace your pads now.

Cheapest place for genuine Porsche parts would be Sonnen:

You can use their website or call them and they'll will help you if your unsure of the part number..

$798 for all 4 pair pads.. call your local dealer and see what they quote you, I bet it's over a grand..

in past i've bought my parts from Sunset Porsche in Oregon- so much cheaper than POH & they ship to HI via USPS priority mail vs some mainland dealers will only use UPS at much higher ship cost.
