    I'm in Dallas/Irving. I'm close to Irving Blvd so any place around there for good tires I can get to quickly.

    I have had pretty good results using tru balance on the hub piloted wheels which does cause this wear also i just got some new lug nuts to try out from peter built that have a centering pin to align the rims on the hub

    Same here, I used to run Toyo's all around, loved the drives but every set of the M147's did just what your's are doing, switched to Yokohoma's and run 110 psi and have been well pleased. I'm currently running B.F. Goodrich on my drives because of the good deal I got at Loves, about 100,000 miles on them and seem to be wearing pretty even and holding up well. The cheapest investment you can make toward good tire wear is a good pressure gauge.

    Personally I hope to never have to buy a cheap steer, almost everything I've driven to this point has had michelin's on the steers at some point and I've been disappointed by everything that's replaced them.
