Brake Pad Wear Sensors
Going to be swapping pads soon to the Hawk Street Race pads. Since the OEM pads still have plenty of life do the wear sensors need to be changed out? I know that its normal to replace them with the pads but thats usually assuming the pads NEED to be changed vs a performance mod.

The sensors only need to be replaced if they have been activated. The sensors will short circuit when worn to signal that the brake pads are at minimum thickness.
