Has anyone else had an issue with their PS4S's with inaide tread chunking? My tires have 17k on them, no track days, no auto-x and just street driving. They all still have 6/32 remaining.

Yeah definitely curious what's going on here. ^Cold temps and at-the-limit driving would be a culprit but I'm leaning alignment as well.
Not 100% clear from the pics but is this just one tire? That would at least point to a tire failure but if it's happening on more than one that's environmental.

A couple of people have mentioned cold.
That's what it looks like to me, too. Was it cold out when you first saw this, like below 40°?

Usually when I've seen customers with tires like that are for several reasons.
1) driven regularly on sharp edged rock or brick roads/driveways.
2) aggressive driving on summer tires in cold winter.
3) tire tread separation from rubber that did not cure properly when manufactured.
PS4S usually have a 30k mile warranty. If this happening on all four tires you should get a proration credit (a little less than 50% $ towards another Michelin/bfgoodrich tire) if you claim it as "tread separation". Bring it to a tire center and they will contact Michelin.
