I am getting ready to do my first DE this next weekend. I took out the Pirelli Corsa's that i used last year to do my first DE this year and I see that the right rear has considerable more wear than the left rear. The wear is even it is just across the board more wear on the right side. I assume that the limited slip axle puts power to both wheels so I would expect even wear, anyone have a similar experience?

My right rear has the same problem. I really didnt pay attention till you said that
but my drivers side rear is worn but not as bad as the passenger side.

wearing on one side from my experience has been from scrubbing, drifting, or sliding the rear in the same direction...perhaps there's a turn you frequent from the same direction on a regular basis or the track is set up so that you make more right vs left turns???

clockwise tracks wear out left side tires faster than the right side. Counter-clockwise tracks do the reverse. Does this explain it? If not, check your alignment. Rear toe on these cars gets knocked out of alignment easily unless youo install aftermarket toe links. Excess toe in will cause uneven and rapid wear in back and my guess is that this is the problem.

I think I am going to have the toe checked as the track is mid-ohio clockwise so I would think its harder on the left rear. will a car out of toe cause even but excessive tire wear?

if the toe is only messed up on one side then it will affect that side more I'd guess.
