Rear wheel rotors don't wear as fast as the front in FWD vehicles. The reason is that 70% of the braking is done by the front brakes.

Is not unusual to replace the rear rotors every 2 to 3 front rotor replacement.

Now if you had an AWD volvo then you'll be bitching that the rear rotors don't last that long :)
