What Might Cause Outside of Trailer Tires to Wear Out Quickly
Question:
Hello there. I have a question regarding my my 22GN trailer. The only right side 2 tires on the front axle wear very fast, in less than 3 month they are done. The outside tire comes to wear out first. I try to put the load even, I dont load more than 12000 lbs, I have put different kind of tires but, still doing it. I wondering if is the axle that will need to be replaced or needs wheel alignment. Please if you could give me some info I really appreciate it.

It's not uncommon for what you are experiencing to be related to axle alignment issues or even a bent axle. I'd recommend having a shop who can do trailer alignments check out the trailer to see if they can find an issue before replacing the tires. Since the outside of the tires are wearing out I would guess the axle may be bent forward.
