I'm getting the same center wear at 32 lbs in the rear on DWS06 315's, dropping them to 30.

Weird. I run 36 all the way around and haven't had uneven wear through one set of fronts and two sets of rears. 20k miles + on fronts and only a few thousand on this set of rears. First lasted 20k miles before needing replacement due to dry rot/cracking.

Hmmm seems to be a variation of opinions here...currently I am at 33.5 back front and see how it goes the 33.5 is over the 32 suggested for the front hopefully wont be an issue
