Originally posted by Rara: yeah, you are fine. The rear brakes do very little on a front heavy car, and the rear brakes will wear significantly slower than the fronts.
Not necessarily true for the all disc cars. I think it's over-biased to the rear for stability, or something, but it seems common (and it happened to me) that the rears wore out well ahead of the fronts.
Drums may be different. Could be that the master cylinder is biased for the disc/drum setup, and not changed at all for the 4-disc? Just guessing, here.
Function before fashion.
