This may also be a function of having pushed out the rears because of the wider wheels and the offset. More contact patch sounds like the brackets could help.
Seems to me your tire pressure on the rear is a bit high for the tire you are using on the rear.
I cannot think of another reason for wear in the middle of the tread

At 35 psi the rear tires are over inflated causing the center if the tire to wear faster.

There are times I think of you as the Robert Frost of automotive prose.
