The brake pads are the thimble-sized pillars that create friction against the rotors to slow your car down. They're housed in the calipers, the clamps that are responsible for initiating this friction through brake fluids flowing through tubes coming from the brake pedals.

Since a car is typically much heavier in the front, the brake pads in the respective wheels would have to do much more work. The rear brake system offer a supporting role, specifically for keeping the car stationery for a long time. This is why some opt for a drum brake, which has a locking mechanism meant for steeper parking zones, instead of brake pads.

Signs of wear and tear on your brake pads would show around the 30,000 mile mark, which would show discoloration on the rotors caused by constant friction. Forceful brakes and lack of cleaning would cause this mileage to significantly shorten.
