Tow Vehicle Steer Tires??
My steer tires wearing on the outside edge both sides. Very noticeable, inside edges still like new. Took to my dealer when had 7-8000 miles on it to get alignment checked, soon as tech saw 5th wheel in bed sold me not to waste my money! Said typical wear when pulling 5th wheel?? I reluctantly accepted figuring must be something to it if they did not want my money. Have since taken to 2 different reliable tire /alignment shops and got basically the same answer. Curious if this is typical with everyone and we just buy a lot of steer tires? I have had them rotated with drive tires once and am getting ready to take in and have turned around on wheels to prolong wear as much as I can. I'm only about 200 lbs difference on steer axle between hooked and unhooked. They are OEM General tires which I think are pretty good tires but don't know and it is a dully. Any incites will be appreciated.
