Default tires question

I have been racing this chassis since Sept and I really enjoyed it. but recently something about this car has been bothering me.

i noticed the tires wear out in unequal rate. the rear tires wear a lot faster than the front tires because this is such a rear end heavy car. the difference is so big that if i rotate the tires, i would have to change the car's setup every time to compensate. if i don't rotate the tires, when the rear tires wear out completely, i would have to change all four tires at once to maintain balance.

It's definitely not a speed issue. i have no problem with the speed of the car. it's just that i have to change tires more often than other drivers. and i am on a budget like many others here.

so help this newb out guys. how do you deal with the uneven tires wear for the TA06?
