Do the front or rear tyres wear quicker on 4wd. Reason being is that I've just bought some 20's with used tyres and 2 are lower than the other 2 so I'd like to get them to wear out around the same time.
Thanks

Slightly in most cases, depends on the car and how you drive it.

Front. 
Unless you have one of the systems that has a heavy bias to the rear.

Re: Tyre wear
My fronts seem to have worn quite a bit quicker than the rears, probably due to engine weight and possibly a bit more scrubbing through the corners if pushing on. Just ordered a new pair of Michelin PSS's for the front, but the rears have plenty left on them, and they were all fitted at the same time
Re: Tyre wear
I thought my rears wore quicker.
Re: Tyre wear
Rears wear quicker on a B7. Makes sense really seem as 60% of the power is sent there.
Re: Tyre wear
mine wears the fronts more im just after changing them round
Re: Tyre wear
OK, thanks guys, looks like its down to driving style ect. No hard and fast rule.
