No more Toyos for me! I've been riding around in a death trap for who knows how long... At least its not the front but nevertheless. I bet this is partially due to not rotating them side to side, but seems like something might be off off with the alignment., Passenger rear is wearing on the inside too but not nearly as bad (the tread is not separating at least). Fronts are totally fine. I probably didn't have them at "optimal" pressure all the time either (might get some kind of aftermarket tire pressure monitor system). I guess I can't complain too much - got almost 30K out of them.

I think some Michelin Pilot Sport's are in my future. They are expensive, but I hear great things. I could probably keep the fronts but not sure if I want to mismatch bramds...

Needless to say my plasti-dip'ing the rims project has been delayed for now until new tires are on. I'm going to put the full size spare on the driver side rear for safety reasons...
