The rear axle is the swing axle, meaning the pivot point for turns is the front axle. Thus there is more wear on the rear because those tires are being dragged around the pivot point. Next time you stop somewhere it is safe to do so, turn your whole rig in one direction then look at the rear tires, they will be deflected a little in the opposite direction of the turn.
