why i wonder , not according to mine, but you do tend to find discs in much worse condition on the side mud shield covers

usually rear discs getting more problems from lack of hard use with most of braking effort on the front ,in that pads wear through corrosion on discs , wear rate also depends on quality of pads ,discs and caliper pistonsthanks for the help but a bit confused?????
I agree thats why I took mine off when I fitted new discs but the mot guy told me to put em back or no ticket!! he read to me from the mot stuff and it says something like badly rusted or missing is a fail
