Tires

Gotta put new rubber on my rear.

Falkien Ziex 512's on my 16" stock chrome rims.

Had Falken Ziex 502's.......put 35k on them.

Seems they were wearing on the inside too much for the rear.....the front's O.K.

Anybody got any suggestions?

It's your camber setup. You could take it to an alignment shop to correct it but a little negative camber (top of the wheels pointed in) helps with cornering traction. Up to 2 degrees of negative camber doesn't significantly reduce tread wear but anything greater will wear out the inner parts of the tires faster.
