I suppose it's possible that aluminum rollers wear tires down more quickly, but I doubt it. My watts are only half that of a pro, so maybe that explains it.
Hmm - may be the ABS, may be the tires.
Most the "good" tires that I won't allow on the rollers have glued on tread that will de-laminate, esp at lower pressure where there is more resistance. For racing warm-up (OP did not say why they were wanted) ideally you have 2 bikes. Switching wheels is a pain.
