Listers,
I'm running Porsche 996 calipers and having just
changed the pads, I've noticed uneven pad wear:

Left outer-    3mm top  5mm bottom
Left inner-    4mm top  5mm bottom

Right outer- 3.5mm top 4.5mm bottom
Right inner- 2.5mm top  6mm bottom

"Left, right, top and bottom" are used to describe
the orientation of the pad as it is installed in
the caliper.

Pads in question were Hawk HPS.

Any idea why this would occur- looks strange to me.

I'm running OEM Porsche Textars now, we'll see how
they wear, will go to Porterfield R-4 or Pagid Orange
for the summer.

Taka
