    Hello everyone,

    Im having tire wear on all of my tires. Its mostly on the toe wear as seen in the pictures. Also i noticed when im going down hill and the steering wheel is slightly the left i can feel viberation on the passenger side.

    Any advice on what to check? I inflated the tires to 105 couple of weeks ago.

    That's pretty normal wear. It will also very slightly by the weight of your loads.

    You can try balancing beads.

    But proper inflation, a 3 axle alignment, and a rotation every 50 or 75 thousand is what will make them last.

    You still got some meat on those.

    My extended sleep in this morning has in fact been interrupted by our OM making get my tires checked and aired before this place gets real busy.

    Drives were good. One steer was at 98 one at 94.

    This is why it's good to check often.

    I agree those look pretty good. I wouldn’t do a thing to it.

    Yes the tires still have alot on them and want to make sure they stay like this.

    I have tpms installed so the tires are always inflated to 105 now since its summer.


    Just want to make sure i dont have to do anything extra like alignment or shocks..

    I already drove from 1,042,000 to 1,321,000 in a year! Thats almost 280,000.
