Which CV joints wear first? any experiences

[Joules]

Hi all,

Just wondered if anyone has had any CV joints replaced and hence is there an opinion as to which are most likely to wear first.

I.e. Rears or front

Running on the logic that the front see the greater range of movement owing to the fact that they are applying power to the wheels doing the steering. I would expect to see them go first. However, if the rears see more power which appears to be the case with my S4 since the rear tyres wear quicker than my fronts although I'm positive there is something wrong with my rear end. (Stop it) then they could go about the same time.
