I always setup my car so that I have somewhat equal wear on front and rear tires. I think this is the only way to be quick the whole stint. Often I have 1 or 2% more wear on the rear tires, that's just how I prefer it. Because if the front tires gets worn first, they will just get worse really quick - while you can still turn the car in if the rear tires are more worn (or equally worn) and then just be a bit more careful with the throttle. You can at least do something about it, which is not the case if you have all your grip in the front end.
If your front tires are cooked after 2 laps you are in real trouble and need to work on your setup. My tires are barely in race temp after 2 laps.
