Default Center tyre wear 2015 v60 R design

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue?
Last year I had a replacement tyre on the NSF wheel as I was going on holiday and mine had started to crack between the tread. I didn't notice straight away but after a couple of hundred miles the car started to tramline alot and being awkward when going over white lines. As the driver's side tyre was not the same as the one I had fitted I had it changed to the same tyre as what I had fitted. It improved slightly but still pulled about on road repairs etc.
Thursday we went shopping and I parked with the wheel turned out, I noticed that the center of the tyre was completely scrubbed away normally a sign of an over inflated tyre. I checked it with a good quality guage and it was at 32 psi. The tyre has covered 5k since fitted. Also the driver's side tyre has stated to do the same at 3k. I went back to the garage I had them (where I used to work 25 years ago) and spoke to one of the guys who I worked with. He said he was unsure why and that some cars don't like certain tyres. I've had a set of good years fitted to the front and now it's a completely car. The handling is great and no more being pulled about. The tyres I had previously were Cooper's at about £110 so they weren't budget ones.
Has anyone else had this issue?
