Well how many miles have you put on? How many burnouts you have done?
Even aggressive driving and taking off hard will literally accelerate the wear on the tires.
I've had my DWs on for almost a year now and done almost 8,000 on them.

5 months does seem relatively quick...but how many miles do you drive?

I've got PSS all around, drive about 1k to 1200 miles per month, hopefully I make it past 5 months
