Just got my service report from the dealer, and after changing my pads and rotors (EBC, yellow and sport slotted, respectively) 12k miles ago, they're saying they're down to replacement thickness on both pads and rotors. Not impressed - the brakes sang all year long, faint metallic squeal, and performance was the same as OEM, and perhaps slightly dirtier with regard to brake dust. Lifespan definitely wasn't. This was with daily driving (40 miles round trip, freeway, some stop and go) and a couple of trips across the Rockies and one short run through Slickrock in Moab. The rotors also developed a shimmy about 1k ago, so I'm pretty sure they warped. OEM lasted far, far longer.
Open to other ideas, as I'm going to have to put the thing up on jack stands and do the brakes in the next month, looks like. Thinking about going plain-jane solid rotors and normal pads from AutoZone if the expensive ones are going to be this fickle.
