I'd guess if you were really hammering your brakes or wiper blades you might have to but even then changing your brakes probably only costs $600 so why prepay
Well when BMW paid, they'd just slap new pads on. I have a feeling now that WE are paying, they'll recommend new rotors, pads, and a brake bleed for a couple thousand bucks.

I think standard BMW dealer recommendation is a new car once the brakes are worn actually. it'd be LCI time for the g20
