Change the brakes when they wear out. This could be 10K miles, this could be 60K miles.

My front brake pads were out at 8,000 miles. I was the second fastest at the Acura dealership that examined them - the number one guy had brakes done at around 5,500 miles and he used his RSX for racing exclusively.

I changed mine earl at about 10,000 miles. They were fine but I ordered a set of AEM pads for a friend and me so I threw mine on when I got them.
