I agree with the others. Trucks are designed to pull trailers and whether a fifth wheel or bumper tow, front end wear is an alignment problem, not a usage problem. You need to go to better tire dealers who know what they are doing. Les Schwab is a good one, and I have had success with Pep Boys, Discount Tire Centers, America's Tire (Discount Tire), Tire Pros and many other reputable tire places. I avoid any tire shop that would tell me that kind of doo-doo.
I wonder if even if you were overweight with your tow load that this would be the case. I can imagine this causing an apparent alignment problem since the weight might cause the front end to rise, so much so that the tires are now riding on the outsides like you are seeing. Then if one has tires that are overflated, even more so. This would be a weight compliance issue that the trailer is aggravating. Is this what they might be alluding too? They would just be explaining it wrong - another reason to avoid them.
Where is LonnieB who could set this straight. I miss his expertise.
