My OEM Pirellis (215/55 16) on my '04 9-5 Arc sedan did that. Anytime any of the 4 were on the front, the rubber got sheared off like that.
All I can think is, I got the car as a demo with 900 miles on it and the dealer's family used the car with pitifully low inflations up until then. I mean, well under 20 psi. Although these were always kept about 38 psi on my watch, the damage I felt was baked in somehow. Now, I didn't take it easy either on that set.
Since then with various Generals and Bridgestones, no such pattern as that.
Some cupping when tires were on the back, otherwise not bad at all.
