Mine don’t. I’ve been through 3 sets of rears and two sets of fronts.

If you run the Bridgestones at 28-30 psi, they wear more evenly, assuming the alignment is not cambered too much.

What rear pressure are you running?

That seems to be the consensus. Reducing the pressure will accommodate for the additional center wear.

I ran mine at 32 per Rich and both front and rear had even treadwear and still had at least 50+% tread after 3500 miles (only one track session)

I run around 28-30 front and rear. I'm too lazy to set them any closer than that.
