Those with Brembos.....
Brembo's
Good question, I bought mine used, and I'm at 12k miles, so they should still be ok, although I do notice a tremendous amount of dust on the wheels, like they need to be cleaned every few days.
Downshifting decreases the use of the breaks too.

I'm at 21K miles, and still have 65% in the rear and 50% in the front. I guess it all depends on your driving habits. I also usually use rev-matching and downshift when I slow down to take some of the load off the brakes.
Hope this helps.

Well supposedly the Brembos are more fade-resistant than OEM brakes. I know someone who had to change them at less than 20k miles, on other people's cars they might last twice as long. Much like tire life, your brake pad longevity depends on your driving habits.
