That has always been my concern with the big brake kits that switch out fronts only.
Good luck

I was wondering the same things about the GT500 front kit. Last year when I was running the Ferodo DS2500 on the front and Hawk HPS on the rear I ran 6 track days plus maybe 6,000 road miles and the fronts had from .12 to .16 left and the rears from about .18 to .22. According to Hawk the their front pads new are .585 front and .656 rear. Assuming that the Ferodo pads had the same initial thickness then last season I got about the same wear rate front and rear.
Does anyone know if a stock GT500 has a different front/rear brake bias than the stock GT?
