HFP problem???

i have a 07 si coupe with the hfp suspention. i also have the hfp wheels (5k on them). i put my STOCK wheels on for frost heave season and noticed that my rear tires(HFP wheels) are chopped to hell. one is really kinda bad. i noticed that the worst point of wear on the more damaged tire is exactly across from the weight. could this just be a tire-balancing mistake, or is it my alignment???? my front wheels were perfectly worn even. any advice would be helpful.

I have an 07 Civic SI coupe with HFP rims on it with about 17,000 miles. I rotated the tires at 7,000 miles. Haven't rotated them since. While I was doing an oil change last week I noticed that the inner of my rear tires were wearing out pretty bad. The drivers side rear tire is almost bald and the passengers rear tire is not far behind. I'm not sure if this is the same problem you are having, but I am taking it into the dealer to see if it's a factory problem.
