Surely you wouldn't do a full rotor and pad replacement with each set of tires, right? The brakes pads should at least last through a couple sets of tires. And the rotors will last through a few sets of brake pads as long as you change the pads early enough.

Given that factory tires are roughly $1,400 a set. The overall maintenance cost of the brakes should at least be comparable to the overall cost of tires.

That's all I meant.
