[s-cars] Pad wear - Porsche calipers

I was doing my twice yearly summer/winter tire changeover
yesterday and noticed that on my C5 A6, the inner pads on my front
brakes are substantially more worn than the outer.
IIRC, the pads are either Hawk or Pagid, the calipers are
Boxsters, and the brackets are an unbranded steel product.
Has anybody else seen this kind of uneven wear with Porsche brake
upgrades? A buddy in the Porsche community thought that this was
unusual for the Porsche brakes.
And a related question -- should I just swap the inner/outer pads
to even out the wear, or do I need to source/install new pads?
I'll be taking a look at my A4 to see how the pads on those
calipers (Boxster S) are wearing.
Thanks!
