you may want to lower to 32psi, if you are getting center wear - had close to 35k on my Diamaris with dead even wear at 32psi - they still had tread, but I replaced them as they were becoming too slick on wet pavement

see my note in the "strong tyre..." thread on the Vredesteins - unfortunately a "softer" compound which excells in braking, will usually wear quicker
