I think you'll find the fronts are always doing most of the work. You never want the rears to lock first, and most cars today have a front weight bias to begin with, so the front has the most grip.

I can't think of any cars meant for use on pavement that have a rear brake bias, apart from some go-karts with a solid rear axle.
