    You can always take the pads you have on there now off and look at them...

    Your car comes with a jack. You just need a 12mm wrench and a brake spreader, probably less than $20 for the both of them. This way you can do the brake job yourself in the future also.

    I've always found that the caliper compresses a little bit when you swing the pads off. With the spreader I was easily able to get the pads swung back onto the rotor. These tools are a must for everyone. Imagine if you had brake trouble and SOG couldn't fit you in until a few days later, what would you do... hope your brakes worked around that next corner... have your car towed to the shop... borrow your moms car...
