Most GT mustangs wear out the rear tires because when you push on the accelerator the torque pushes down the tire against the pavement increasing friction. This is a normal wear characteristic of most RWD vehicles, just like the front tires wear on front wheel drive (plus more weight on FWD tires).
This is assuming of course you don't have stupid front alignment angles or dumb suspension like twin I-beam explorers that scrub the tread off the front tires as well.
