Which tires wear more quickly on your S4? Front or back?

On my car, the rear tires seem to wear a bit faster.

Almost always fronts from what I have experienced. And that's a lot of S4s. :-P

Fronts wear at least twice as fast. Stock suspension here.

Tell me about it. I kept telling myself wait, wait, wait till you do your

control arm upgrade. Well, putting in my HD tie rods last night I looked at the tires. GONE, splitting on one. Luckily it didn't blow on Hwy 1 near a cliff last weekend! It's a loooooooonnnnnnggggg drop to the ocean!
