Hmm, I thought I had read on a forum somewhere that it was normal to
wear out the rear tires in the center on an E36 M3. I guess I was
mistaken.

I usually go 36/38 when I inflate them, but I don't check them very
often... I just checked them now and the rears are at 26 and 29.

Not sure, maybe I was mistaken. It is easier to see the center and
outside of the rear tires compared to the inside. But I thought my
wear bars on the center were lower or the same as the inside of the
tire.
