I've destroyed calipers by wearing the pads too thin (Screw the rotors!)...
IF you feel the need, do it. what's it cost, 400 bucks? 600 with rotors and a flush? Or if you do it yourself, 300 for the whole shebang?
My front pads are 3-4 years old, ~30K miles. THey looked thick when I swap over winter rims in November.
There'll be this scratchy noise you'll hear when its time, but it'll be before you toast your rotors. Although, rotors are worth doing if you weren't the one to put them on the car...who knows how old they are.
