Disc Brakes have a wear indicator (a small metal bracket that will rub against the rotor when the pad is a little more than half worn)
It will make a light constant squeeling sound that gets louder as the pad wears...... there is usually around a 1/4 inch of brake pad left when it first starts squeeling, it's just a reminder that they will need to be replaced soon.
