racingbmwm3 is on a distinguished road
are you cleaning the carrier also? I use a wire brush and clean the area where the pads contact the carrier as lots of buildup can accrue there and that may account for some of the wear also. Hopefully just cleaning fixes the issue.
If the difference was only a couple of mm's between the sides I wouldn't worry about it, but a 50% difference is a sign of something wrong. Does it pull to one side while braking?
