Brake Pad Question...

Hiya kids...I did a search, and couldn't find a suitable answer. I had my Inspection I performed today, and my brake pads are 10 mm at all four corners. What does this translate to in terms of percentage? How thick are the MINI brake pads when new? Thanks!

10mm is great actually, that's almost new.
new pads are around 11.5mm so you still have plenty of live left. the wear sensor sits at about 3mm so you still got 7mm left to go until the sensor is touching the rotor.
