In my experience...I change 2 sets of front pads to 1 set of rear pads..generally..under normal city/hwy driving...just my 2 cents.

Also I do a brake service every 48,000km front and rear.

Trust me they were installed correctly. Caliper channels were brushed, new shims used, and pad ears were properly lubed before installation. I believe the parking brake channel is corroding and causing the rear right caliper to seize. Mitsubishi issued a recall for that issue recently, and while I was suppose to take it in on Monday for the recall, the dealer called and said they're out of parts so they will push my appointment to end of June! I'm going to try to ask Mitsubishi to pay for my early rear brake pad replacement as well, since it's clear to me their parking brake design is at fault...
