Talking with people on the forums and seeing how the tire, how do I say it, distributes the rubber under all that weight of the car at their size. It really likes to wear the middle of the tire out. I suppose running around 30psi might help(the tire has a chance to spread out a little more being less inflatted) but Im at a little over 6k miles and Im down to around 5-10% in the middle of my rear tires...Its not the alignment or toe..thats all correct....so yea

 

This is what my contact patch looks like.

 

Have you taken a depth gauge (or penny) to it? The center portion doesn't look much worse than the outer portion, at least from these pics. . .

 

I was just showing what the contact patch looks like. i just purchased the tires new 2 days ago.

 

First and foremost i realize this thread is over 2 years old ha but i am curious if the correct size is 265/40/18 and 245/40/18 or are you supposed to stick with a 45 series sidewall?

 

Nevermind I figured it out by looking at the pictures
