EC Regulation 90
EC Regulation 90 (also known as ‘R90’) is a European standard for brake pads and discs. Under this regulation, all brake components sold for vehicles manufactured after September 1999 must be tested and approved to ensure that they are of a safe standard. This regulation aims to ensure a greater quality of brake parts by comparing aftermarket products to the original equipment. The brakes and parts supplied by Kwik Fit exceed the R90 standards.

How much does it cost to fit brake pads & discs?
The cost of fitting brake pads and discs can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle, as well as the quality of the parts used.
Here at Kwik Fit, we offer a range of brake options to suit both different budgets and requirements. Here’s a general idea of what you can expect:
Do brake pads and discs need to be replaced at the same time?
Don’t worry, brake pads and brake discs don’t always need to be replaced at the same time. However, it is usually recommended for optimal performance and safety purposes.
One of the benefits of replacing them together is even wear: if the brake discs are worn or damaged, replacing them and the brake pads simultaneously ensures even wear and prolongs the lifespan of both parts. That being said, if the brake discs are in decent condition, only the brake pads may need replacement.
What is the range of brake pad replacement?
Typically, we’d say that a brake pad of 10 to 12mm (the average size) can last between 20,000 and 70,000 miles — depending on driving habits and conditions. If you’re a regular city-dweller, therefore braking a lot more, or if you carry heavy loads (EG: a delivery driver), your brake lifespan is likely to be significantly reduced.
We would always recommend booking your vehicle in for regular brake inspections at your local Kwik Fit centre to ensure maximum brake safety and braking performance.
We get asked a lot of questions about brakes at our Kwik Fit centres. So, we’ve produced an FAQ page solely dedicated to braking systems. If you have a query about an aspect of brakes beyond the realm of parts and cost, check out our brakes FAQ page below.
