Default Are these car brakes worn?

Fair enough.

Regardless of how or little the pads were actually worn down, they
do look rather crumbled away at the edges, impossible to say now
whether they were like that before they started removing them, but
I wouldn't fancy them on my car, and it doesn't sound like the
price they charged you was OTT, you'd probably have come away more
skint if you'd gone to one of the "big name" chains ...

I have seen many a car with obviously failed shocks, kangaroo hopping
down the roads. The drivers either don't notice, or don't care.

I overtake them as swiftly as possible.


dennis will be along shortly!
