Rear brake shoe tolerance

I want to know the thickness tolerance for the rear brake shoes on a 2008 Civic LX. At what thickness do they call for a change?
Thanks!

Re: Rear brake shoe tolerance

Answering my own question, I found the figure 20mm as minimum. I have 150K on the original rear shoes and they are still within tolerance. The front pads are on their 4th set.

Re: Rear brake shoe tolerance

It sounds about right, the rear only do about 20% of the braking.
