Rear tyre wear

Hi,
Do the rear tyres on the M normally wear evenly? On my COupe the outsides of the rears have worn more, the middle is fine, and the insides I think fine. I think I read elsewhere that the inner rears normally suffer more wear? I`m running 2.1bar pressure front and 2.2bar rear as per the drivers door label (31&32 psi) and I`m still on the original Conti Sport M3`s.
 
My rears are just about ready to be replaced and are wearing slightly more on the inners. What do you guys do when you need to replace only 2 tyres? A bit of a no no to mix and match makes I suppose, but would like to get rid of the contis if possible. Your pressures are almost identical to mine by the way.
 
Mine did exactly the same - 3-4mm on the outside and at/below the wear bars on the inside. Although that did in include one easy and one hard trackday.
 
Insides definitely wear quicker, just check out the negative camber on our cars to see why (stand back and look at her arse). I get about 14k a set for the rears
