From my experience with font wheel drive is that the front tires wear about 2-3 times as fast as the rear ones. Front wheel drive cars are front heavy plus the front tires must also steer and transmit all the driving force. The rear tires just go for the ride. It is quite normal to find the front tires wearing much faster than the rear ones. Greg Wroclawski Bell Labs
