So anyway PS Rear tire is almost totally smooth and the DS rear tire not much better.
Front tires are in good shape. I figure the back tires wore out in the last 4,000 to 6,000 miles. Had a 4 wheel alignment done June 16th, 2006 (Tires Plus). Has anyone experienced this before? My work commute is 36 miles of Wisconsin backroads.

I put the factory wheels and tires back on when I saw the condition of the rear tires.

Car is not lowered. The PS rear rim is slightly bent +/-0.125 out of round. DS Rear rim is perfect.

the tires look like they are wearing out nicely but i dont know y the rears are wearing out faster than the fronts.. seems kinda weird

 

What kind of car?

The most likely causes are alignment and suspension. It's possible that your alignment is off. It's also possible that you have a suspension problem - worn bushings, bent control arms, worn shocks, etc.

 

definately check the alignment, bad camber eats tires quick.

 

bad toe eats tires quick not bad camber..

 

I bet your rear toe is way out of spec. Same thing happened to me.
