Based on the signifcant wear vs the right rear, I have to believe this is an alignment issue of some type.

Any suggestions based on past experience? I'm also going to send the pics to Roger Krause and see what they say.
Improper toe-in will cause tread feathering, but that also happens with lots of track work. I don't see any of that on your tire anyway. Nor do I see uneven wear from the inside to the outside of the tire, so your camber seems pretty close. I think that the tire was internally non-uniform, causing the uneven wear.
