Stock Break Wear
 
I took my frs to get its 15k service and noticed on the form that my rear breaks measured 7mm and my fronts measured 9mm. I thought that cars were supposed to wear the fronts faster?

Thoughts?

Cars with VSC use the rear brakes more to keep the car stable. Same thing happens with my wife's Mazda3.

What were the original values?

Deadspool 04-24-2013 04:45 PM
most likely 12mm

Would the E-brake have anything to do with the wear on the rear brakes? Or is the ebrake a drum brake?

the e-brake is a drum

Most rear brake pads start out thinner than the front pads, I wouldn't worry about it.
