Of course you can go through tires that fast. It just depends on your driving style, and on the alignment. I have had ContiExtremeContacts on my 9-3 for 10,000 miles now with no indication of your problems. They've been rotated at 5K miles and again at 10K. If you didn't rotate and your alignment is out of whack, they could certainly wear unevenly with bias towards the inside of the tire. My original tires (Pirellis) were cupped at 10K miles, apparently because the alignment was whack from the factory.
I would think you could rotate your tires and be fine, but I'm not a service technician and haven't seen the actual condition.
