Just finished the rear brakes on the 205,000 mile E46. I purchased new rotors and pads but once I measured the rotors they were nearly new limits - just under 20mm thickness. They were almost the same thickness as new rotors. Minimum wear limit is 17.4mm.

Goes to show the the low dust pads I had on them were very, very easy on the rotors.

I should say that while my last 100,000 miles have been mostly highway my first 100,000 were a mix of highway and city. I think I've just developed a habit of going easy on the brakes.
