Default Weird uneven tire wear

SO I inspected my 01 350z for tire wear the other day ( just hit 60k) bought the car with 50k when it had new tires on it, now 10k later, the front tires look fine id say about 60% tread remaning ( weird tho left seemed to have bout 10% more thread than right any comment on that) and also rear was weird the center had about whic looked like 20-30 % thread mb a lil more but outer parts of the tire had good 60%. TIres are some crap AVON used car dealer lot put on car before sale.

Knock on wood* car doesnt make any noise that would suggest feathering, and the wear is pretty even on the front tires its the rear taht is a little weird.

I wouldnt say it I rape it all the time but I dont drive it like a granpda, so can sometimes under heavy acceleration the center of rear tire wear more than the sides?

Thanks

and sorry for long post

If there is less tread in the centers, they are probably over inflated.
