Just a curious question: Do the fronts and rears wear more symmetrically on a C4 where the fronts are doing ten per cent or more of the work? I am noticing that at 11k I have surprisingly even wear on my C4S. Will probably replace them at the same time. Very different from the C2 experience.

my C2, rears are at 0% whilst fronts are at maybe 60%+ ... i don't do anything over the top driving either, no burning out or launches to degrade rears exponentially.

My C4 has always worn the rears by a 2-3:1 margin, the difference being on how aggressive I drive the car. If I am overly aggressive it's a 3:1 ratio of rear to front wear.

My TT was all wheel drive and it didnt wear at any different rate than I have experienced with the rear wheel drive GT3s (Not including the 997 GT3 because of the cup tires) I get 2 sets of rears to one pair of fronts.

The C4 is RWD most of the time unless there is need to apply torque to the front wheels, for example under acceleration when the rear wheels lose traction.

Lose traction in a rear wheel drive car? With 12 inches of tire back there and an engine hanging over them??

Should have said "if" any rear wheel loses traction, it can happen
