Car Guys/Mechanics: what the heck happened?

Thanks for all the tips, fellas! I'm dropping it off with my mechanic tomorrow--they put the tires on and have been doing all the maintenance on my vehicle (Lexus IS300) for years. The car never handled like it had an alignment problem, but I'll have them check. In any event, I think I'll begin trading out to another brand, possibly back to Michelins which have never given me problems on other vehicles.

Those tires look terrible for only having 20k on them. There shot! I would look for a better quality tire if everything else checks out.
