Default Tire Wear Issues

I recently put new tires (General Exclaim UHP) on my 2005 350Z Roadster at Discount Tire and there is significant right rear wear (Middle) after only 7,800 miles. I find this extreme given that I drive my car in normal conditions, monitor the air pressure and do not drive the car hard or recklessly. What kind of mileage do you see out of the tires Nissan recommends for my make and model or are there any issues with tires on the 2005 350Z that anyone knows of? Thanks

yea it would help to post photos..

but if its wearing right down the middle that should be normal right? I mean if it wears starting from the right side of the tire and the left side of the tire is not wearing then I believe you have a problem..but if it wears right down the middle I think that's what it should be like..

If you're wearing heavily down the middle, you've got too much air in your tires.
