Tire wear

I have 15,000 miles and both front tires are worn down to the cord on the inside of the tire. About 1/4 inch of cord is showing. Any thought as to why? No suspension mods have been done. Never hit anything nor does it drive poorly, like shaking. Also, when backing up, turning to full lock (right or left), I hear a pop and the steering wheel feels like a ran over a small rock. Like a bump felt through the steering wheel.
Any insight is appreciated.

I'm still on the original Continental's. 15k miles fronts look good wearing even. Rears on the way out.
