I've gone thru three sets of tires. The original were RFTs. The second were Goodyear eagle GTs. The third were falken 452s . I had wear on the RFTs that way. Good-Even wear on the Goodyear and bad uneven wear on the falkens. That's definitely due to under inflated tires plus aggressive cornering. Also make sure the tire chosen is not soft tread. Summer only tires wear faster. I now have BFG KDW and am around 8k on them , I had them remounted on the opposite side after about 6k for even wear. I have learned to not drive aggressively in cold weather until the tires warm up or I am sure that they are above the recommended pressure. Someone else I saw ran as much as 38psi. I keep mine about 35psi all around . Hot psi will fluctuate about 2 psi so that would put me up there next to the other guy's recommended psi. Also you may notice vibrations on RFTs when first taking off on cold tires under inflated transfered to shaking on the steering wheel.

Well hope that helps.
