Infiniti brake pads typically cost between about $40 and $180 per axle for the pads alone, with OEM Infiniti pads usually in the $100–$180 per axle range. Installed costs vary but generally bring the total per axle to about $150–$350, and roughly $300–$700 for both axles, depending on model and local labor rates.
The question covers both the cost of the pads themselves and the cost to replace them, including labor and potential rotor work. Prices depend on whether you choose OEM Infiniti pads or aftermarket equivalents, the front vs rear position, and if wear sensors or rotors are included, among other factors. The article below breaks down typical price ranges and considerations across Infiniti models.
Cost overview
Prices vary by vehicle configuration and by whether you buy OEM Infiniti pads or aftermarket equivalents. The following ranges reflect common pricing across many Infiniti models as of 2024–2025.
- Pads only (per axle, parts):
- Front:
- Aftermarket: roughly $40–$120
- OEM Infiniti: roughly $100–$180
- Rear:
- Aftermarket: roughly $30–$90

- Wear sensors (if applicable): $10–$50 for the part, plus labor
Prices can vary widely by model year, trim, and region. Always verify compatibility and confirm whether wear sensors or rotors are included in the quote.
Buying options and tips
Where you buy matters for price, fit, and warranty. The main paths are OEM from Infiniti/Dealership, aftermarket from reputable brands, and online or local retailers. The following outlines what you typically get with each option.
- OEM Infiniti pads (dealer or official InfinitiParts): typically the highest price but guaranteed fit and warranty.
- Aftermarket pads from reputable brands (Bosch, Akebono, Wagner, Raybestos, etc.): often lower price with high-quality equivalents; performance pads may be pricier.
- Online retailers vs local auto parts stores: price varies by retailer; factor shipping and return policies into total cost.
- Ensure model/year compatibility and check whether wear sensors are included or required.
When shopping, compare quotes that separate parts and labor, and confirm rotor status if your inspection recommends rotor resurfacing or replacement.
Installation considerations
Installing brake pads is not only about the pad cost. Labor time, rotor condition, and caliper hardware affect total cost. The following considerations can influence the final bill.
- Rotor condition: If rotors are below minimum thickness or show scoring, expect rotor replacement or resurfacing in addition to pads.
- Wear sensors and abutment hardware: Some Infiniti models require wear sensors; some pads include sensors, others don’t.
- Labor rates and vehicle access: Labor costs vary by region and shop; luxury brands often command higher rates.
Budget for contingencies; brake service frequently includes brake fluid checks, bedding-in procedures, and a general inspection of calipers and hoses.
Summary
Infiniti brake pads come in a range of prices depending on OEM vs aftermarket, front vs rear, and whether rotors or wear sensors are included. Pads alone typically run about $40–$180 per axle, with OEM options higher. Installed costs per axle commonly fall in the $150–$350 range, and total for both axles roughly $300–$700, depending on the model and local labor rates. Always verify compatibility, compare multiple quotes, and factor in possible rotor replacement or wear sensor needs for an accurate total.
