I have been running 18/28. Maybe the front is too low.
Perhaps someone can describe the procedure where one puts chalk on the treads to check for full contact at various pressures.

I have a thread depth gauge. After 3 seasons, wear is consistent across both front tires. (18psi) the rears are a moot point due to my caster.

An alternative way to determine your proper TP is by checking them when hot. Your proper inflation is when your hot psi is =10% of your cold psi. Any more or less than 10% and your tires are either under or over inflated.
