I was wondering if you have adjustable camber or if you are running stock camber. You probably know this already, but with stock camber you will run on the edges more when doing aggressive driving. After doing a track day my tires were showing more wear on the front outside edges and were getting blue and oily. This is why I want to get camber plates, to at least reduce the outside wear and get a bigger contact patch.

I'll be getting an alignment soon.. I'll have to see how much camber I could get front and back.. I definitly need more camber.. It is probably set very loose from the factory.
added picture for fun.

The tires look pretty normal to me for having done autocross. Looks like you stayed on the tread and didn't roll on to the sidewall.
The heat from the friction brings the oil in the rubber to the surface and turns the rubber bluish and the oil evaporates. Eventually they dry out and get slippy. How fast depends on the rubber compound and the number of heat cycles and how hot they get.
I am sure people on here who do lots of autocross have a good eye for this.
Nice looking wheels. I bet they help.
