I just ripped my rear pads and both sets were worn at an angle. The pads both had wear at opposite corners. In other words, if you held a brakepad horizontally, the wearing surface is sloped a great deal. The thick part of the pad showed little wear while the other side had about 3mm left.

One pad was worn opposite the respective partner. So that, when put together, the backing plates were perfecly flat in respect to each other.

There was a teensy bit of play in the guide pin on both calipers, and neither slide or bolt was stuck.

Any ideas?
