    Looking for some senior advise on tire wear.

    These are brand new tires, brand new shocks, brand new tie rods and a laser alignment.

    Why are the outer edges of the tires wearing more than the inside?

    They’re not cupping, just wearing on the outside?

    Heavy? And lots of turning?
    Those are some big shoes.

    Air them up as hard as you can tolerate and keep the toe set. It’s all you can do.

    I’d get a new alignment shop. I recently changed shops after 2 or 3 yrs and realize now how crappy of services I was getting.

    500 miles and already dry rotting at tread cap edge due to dirt roads? Sad state for tires since the new compounds have come out recently.
