[QUOTE="E46Fanatic, post: 278789, member: 81"] Yes for RWD, rears will wear out faster. In terms of how significant, I was suprised to read that a staggered setup where rear tyres are wider than fronts will reduce the difference btw fronts and rears. Basically the wider rears will see less heat generated under the same driving conditions, as the drive force is distributed over a larger contact patch compared to narrower tyres. Having said that, you are already on 28k kms and have 50% wear on a set and 20% on the other. I think thats pretty decent mileage for RFTs. [/QUOTE]
