So I have the G35s and the brakes are squealing... 30k miles on it.

Replacement time about right? - had for 2 years.Sounds a little short - even my Audi S4 got more kms and time on its first set.

Squealing is quite sporadic ... but for sure it is the brakes.and definitely a squeal - like a pig lol.

Any comments ? or how long do you get on your brakes?

Thx. L

You should get 25-30K on the brakes.

2003-2004s non-brembo had brake problems where they warranted the brakes til 30K miles. Lots of people wore out at 15k. They upgraded in 2005.

G37s also got a brake upgrade with the Akebonos. You could fit those on your car. It would be a direct swap I believe and at $1200 its a cheap BBK and great upgrade.

I second on this. They are cheaper now. You can get it for I think 1300. At everythingg35.com

I don't complain my brakes go fast too but there is a reason for it. All I know is brake and gas there is no in between. Tires last for me about 12-14k and brakes about 17-18k. LOL
