Do not often use brakes unless coming to stop. other 10% of time errr......

That's exactly how I drive too- engine breaking, slow steady driving most of the time. I try to keep using the breaks to a minimum because of dust, but about 10% of the time

I have my summers off right now and my winters on and I can tell already (5000k) that the summer fronts are down more than the rears but still they look brand new. I'm starting to suspect that the tread depth between the fronts and the rears are actually different from the get-go: could someone confirm that??
