OP here :
Live and drive in sunny central coast California, really not much rain, only short city drives with a few freeways here and there.
All drive is in ECO mode, but it still spins some at start. Like I and another commenter said, the erosion is from the starts , not miles with daily short drives.
So Q : with 3/32” left on front, 4/32” on the rear , should I replace them with warranty now?
Or wait till they go to 2/32”?

1) It would be helpful if you'd tell us where you live and drive. This could be a critical point in this discussion.
2) Nissan recommended PSI is low, in my opinion. It gives a more comfortable ride, but, in my experience, will wear tires. I run mine around 40-42psi, Bridgestone Ecopia Plus (max sidewall printed PSI is 51).
3) There's so much torque with this car, that you need to be gentle from a standing start. You could be scrubbing rubber w/o even knowing it, as it doesn't chirp or make much of a sound at all.
4) I drive all the time in ECO to avoid too much torque/tire wear. I still can give it full throttle when required, but it makes initial movement much more gentle.
Good luck finding a solution!
