I have been working on trucks for 20 years and the right steer always wares more because of the road. But it should not cup and the edges shouldn't ware either. With a good alignment of all axles you should get no less than 100,000 out of a over the road truck and 200,000 out of drives.

Kinda low for drive miles you think?
I'd be disappointed if my drive tires only lasted 200k miles or u sayin we should be happy past 200k -
Im saying at least 200k sorry for missunderstanding.

Depends on tire brands and applications and tires sizes also.

anf forget balancers. 2 cups 50/50 antifreeze.....best balance we have ever had. better than equal better than balancers or weights.....
-
Have them check your spring hangers and shackles closely on that side.

I run balance masters on tractor and trailer.
Have a noticed a difference from before and after, not really but then I took them off for 2 trips and it felt same. Have I seen a diffence in before and after in tire wear, not really never had tire issues but seems like they lasting a little longer.
Only one I felt a difference on was the drive shaft balancer from balance masters. -
Think it was 40calgal that suggested in another thread that you might want to also check your cab mounts for binding as well.

My truck was doing the same thing,and the pins was through the bushing and into the aluminum by about half inch. and the king pins were loose also.
