Yes, the higher pressure argument has been made here,
but as I followed that for at least the first year and maybe two, the center wore more anyway. I think there are suspension geometry factors, but can't imagine there's something off. I do have a dealer discount coupon for suspension adjustments that'll be used during the final in-warranty check-up.
Come to think of it, I was keeping the fronts lower than the rears much of time, meaning they were below Porsche spec, yet they show even wear. --- Ok, less loading on the front, therefore the tire contact patches are "seeing" a higher inflation, yet are wearing evenly. I'll try not to lose sleep over this between now and next winter!
