Uneven tire wear

Mark,
As Ed said, less air would make them flatter... more even wear.
But also as Ed said, more air is usually faster.
So... are you having any issues with traction? If yes, then drop the pressure down to the 18 lb range, and see what it does to help you.
Also, if you just want to try to get a little more life out of them, you could drop pressure a little, but this is probably just minimal difference in the life of the tire.
Since you were going back with same tires, I am guessing you are pretty happy with the set up, and performance. Instead of losing your data from all the other runs by chaning something, I would just line up and race, with my same set up!
Good luck,
Ken
