Front brake pad wear

Post by Davez29 » Wed Mar 17, 2010 2:47 pm

Hi, just checking brake pad wear as I thought I might be changing them shortly. Anyhow they seem fine but did notice that the inner pads per front caliper are wearing at a faster rate than the outer ones, infact the outer ones look twice as thick. Is this normal? The brakes work fine otherwise.

Hmm, I could imagine this happening the opposite way if the sliders were siezed...
You could always swap the pads around? Ie left inner with right outer etc
