As for your tires, I've always seen, and had, the rear tire wear first. I really don't know for sure why, but my theory is that it's the same as on a car, the driving wheel(s) wear first.
Suspension has a lot to do with tire wear, the suspension controls how hard the tires push back against the ground when you hit bumps, controlling how much the tire is scrubbed off. And yes, it is possible that, since you roll on the throttle in a turn, you're making the nose a little lighter. Also keep in mind that, when you roll on the throttle in a lean like that, you're causing just a tiny amount of slip in the rear tire. Not much, it's not like you're fish-tailing, but the rear tire is spinnign just a tiny bit against the pavement, causing more of the rubber to scrub off.
One other thing I noticed in my own riding, my tires wear a crapload faster when they're hot. When I've been tearin up twisty roads for an hour or so, my tires will get really hot and start to just peel away. That, combined with how you roll on the throttle, could also explain why the rear wears faster.
As for your toes hitting the ground, that will happen unless you adjust your posture to stick the knees out. I've had that happen before too, i took a big chunk off the toe guard on my right boot becuz I wasn't postured properly and my toe dug into the ground on a hard right-hander. Find a safe road to practice knee-drag posture, that'll help preserve your shoes.
