Default rear tire wear???

is it normal for the rear right tire to wear at a quicker rate than the rear left? My rear right is worn bad. Oh, and hello, this is my first post to the board.

No its not normal. Your alignment or tire pressure on that side probably caused it. How often do you check your tire pressure? Have you ever had the car aligned?

It happend to me as well and others I know, I think it is the LSD not limiting so much and letting that side slip before it engages.

My passenger rear was bald straight across no on one edge or the other it looked like a slick.

You might see a little bit more wear on one side due to the LSD, but it definitely shouldn't be highly noticeable unless you track your car. You sure you didn't do too many doughnuts in the same direction.

A few hard takeoffs but no donuts

Come to think of it one of the cars I saw was a base model so no LSD anyway.
