The rear pads on my better half's car (Honda Accord) went before the fronts ........... techs said that was not unusual for that car .......
.
I thought there may be an issue with the brake system ...... proportioning valve or something ...........
.
.
while we are on that subject .......... my first car - a 68 Chevelle with a 327 4 speed ..... had over 100k miles on it when I purchased it ........ alot of highway driving ....... I purchased it from the original owner ....... it still had the original rear shoes ...... original clutch also ......
