tire wear

okay ,
I think I may have a problem. My 03 EVO is running 32psi all around but I am getting some pretty wierd tire wear. my right rear tire seems to be wearing slightly faster than all the others. My 2 left tires seem to be wearing more on the inside, but my 2 right tires are wearing evenly. "shouldn't the 2 front tires of the EVO be wearing quicker than the rear???" I do have redline fluid by the way in the diff's and tranny. I guess if my right rear tire is wearing quicker im assuming that means i have oversteer. can anyone explain this?

actually my allignment settings were already re-done. I have a stock suspension set up and everything is as it should be (within manual specs). could it be my driving style or PSI levels? I'm going to try 35psi in front and 32 in rear see if anything changes.
