18psi is way too hard IMO , I would have mine around 12/14psi, if I ran tubes and not mousses. What Maxxis tyre? I run a Maxxis m7305 supercross pro it, lasts for ever and road legal

Tread pattern and compound will affect wear too.

FIM approved tyres run a shallower tread with less knobbles and are, I think, a softer compound too.
