round tire wear

Hello, all. I have a set of Khumo ecsta supra 712 (I think that's the
name..) tires on my 86 5kTQw that are wearing in a way that looks strange
to me.

The shoulders of the tires are wearing first, making them more and more
round.  The inboard and outboard shoulders wear evenly, so I don't think
its an alignment problem, and I keep my tire pressures at around 35psi so
I don't think its that either.

The rears may be wearing a bit faster than the fronts, or they may have
been rotated just before I bought the car in February, I'm not sure..

What's the cause?
