Fronts, middle or rears?

I have Kumhos balanced with dynabeads <http://www.innovativebalancing.com/> and I have been very happy with them. I have put nearly 30,000 on in the last 2 1/2 years and I find that the fronts wear first. Makes sense to me because they are the drive wheels. I have done my own alignment. The fronts wear very evenly. I have rotated once about 15,000 ago, front to rear-rear, and I now need to rotate again. The front-rear still looks very good with lots of tread -- they will go to the front. I know some have trouble with the front-rears wearing but I suspect an alignment problem or loose bogies.
