If you have less than 1/8" pad thickness, start planning to replace them soon.

Since I’m inexperience by visually check brakes from the rim/tire, should I remove my tire to check?

you really shouldn't need to, as you just look at the pad itself. However, to see the back side, you would need to take the wheel off.
