Turning the knob will not magically even out wear. In fact, unless you are very careful, you can easily make the car dangerous on the street attempting to even out wear.
Front brakes wear faster because under breaking, weight shifts forward. There is no such thing as a Physics adjusting knob.
The factory errs on the side of safety by biasing braking to the front to keep the car from swaping ends under braking.
You don't need to be a brake expert to adjust bias, but realize it adjust how you car handles under braking, it is not a wear distributor.[/quote]
Thanks for the Physics lesson Dean, :wink: I understand it's more serious than just wanting to "even out the wear". I am just considering how much breakpad surface and pressure that I'm not using, and it could definately be more efficient. Thanks for the tips guys. It is definately appreciated, I'm still a little wet behind the ears when it comes to working on my car and understand how to get my car to drive like I want.
