I have not done it on my BRZ but have on other cars. If you get a telescoping mirror and flashlight you should be able to look through the window and see both brakes without taking the wheel off. It’s not perfect but I can usually see enough to make a decision on when I need to get new pads. I also rotate my wheels and always check at that time.
