Default Stock Suspension/alignment, Weird Tire Wear?

I just hit about 2500 miles on the car. No auto-x or track duty yet, just normal driving, sometimes a little spirited around the corners. But, I'm getting weird tire wear on the outside of both of the rear tires. Any ideas what is causing this? Is the stock alignment the culprit or are the tires fubar?



This is the same tire on the inside, normal wear.



This is the passenger side tire, same symptoms, a little harder to tell due to the lighting.



Any ideas? Is this something the dealership/tire company would cover?

Also to add, the tire pressures are 32-33 psi cold all around. The S also seems a little tail happy imo around corners, at least more than it should be. Could it be that the alignment is off?

Or maybe I should rotate the tires?
