    reason is the rear does about 30% of the braking on a car. So it would wear out 1/3rd as quick.

    To answer your question aimre, yes the rear pads also have wear indicators.
    I prefer to change pads before it gets to this stage personally though.

    depends on how you drive, what pads you use and what rotors you use. Also if your rotors are warped.

    OEM pads have them, but some aftermarket pads don't.
