    Sorry guys. I just finished talking to the Honda dealer. She was got
    the pads and shoes mixed up. I have 60% left on the front and 66% left
    on the back brakes.

  2. Your back brakes will last a lot longer than the fronts.

    My 98 civic didn't need rear replacements on the shoes until about 225000kms

    I think all the shops do for the rear shoes (and probably
    front pads) is a crude, ruler measurement of the linings
    (shoes and pads). That's what I do when I check my brakes.
    That 66% is just a guesstimate. Sounds like all's normal
    brake lining-wise on your car to me.
