That's strange ,most of the times it's the other way around . What was the centre ? . If it has more tread it needs more pressure .

Get an alignment done as it may not be within specs.

Think I would be taking it back to the dealer before the tyres get any worse . Make sure you have the right tyre pressures in all tyres so they can't blame you , 32 psi I believe are factory specs .  The rear end alignment must be incorrect  for that to happen on a new car with IRS suspension.

I just changed my original Pirelli tyres on my 16 GT at just over 35,000ks. The front tyres still had about 4mm of tread across the tyre and I've kept them as spares just in case.
