I guys, I have driven this volvo s90 for the past 6 months. When I bought it, the tires looked new (only 13k km on it).

Since then, I have driven around another 15k on it, so it is around 28k km now. During my time driving it I noticed the front two tyres have some crazy and unusual wear. The thread on the wheels look like its peeling off, and it happens all around the tyre, not just a particular spot. So from new looking, it now looks like the photos attached.

However the back two tyres still look like new and does not show much wear. So its clear it only affects the front tyres.

Anyone can explain why and is it still safe to use?

Tire was manufactured on week 40, year 2018. Pilot Sport 4 255/40/r19 100w.

The volvo s90 can accelerate quite fast and I floored the car a few times (5 times), could it be the acceleration is too fast for the wheels and hence the extreme wear??

Hoping for some advice on what I need to do, and how to avoid it in the future, thank you!

Nope. The only wear I can think of is driving fast with sudden acceleration. The car does 0-100 in 5.5secs and I floored it a few times.

Is it really so infamous? I also think maybe its true also that the ps range has this issue. Wonder PS 4 S also suffer from similar fate?

Anyway will try to claim warranty and see how.
