Are you deciding that you need brakes? Or, is a shop telling you this? Unless there is something wrong with you car, or you do drive with your left foot on the brake, there is no reason your brakes should be going that quickly. If you are relying on a shop, you might want to get another opinion or pull off a tire yourself and see for yourself.

Scott has a good point. Easy way to tell - at that rate of wear, your wheels should always be FILTHY with brake dust. Could be that the pads are "hanging" and not retracting, but a good mechanic should look for that and correct it.
