    I looked again because it was hard to see full in the picture and it was .27 of a degree.

    Yeah, it's off and it's actually making your rear tires scrub in the process.

    Well i pulled up my post lift alignment specs from Jan 2016, with the thrust angle in mind to compare. Difference of .03 deg. My rear suspension was completely virgin ar that time.

    I guess it was a little off from factory.

    Have you ever hit anything or been hit?

    How many miles do you have on those BFG ATs?

    Your meaning to tell me you have 55,000 + on this current set of tires?

    It's highly likely that you have tire pull then. Rotate the tires, better yet cross rotate then do a full rotation if the issue is still present.

    Correct. Been a great tire for me even through winters. I've been rotating them regularly - especially because I noticed the camber post lift. And kept an eye on the outside cupping of driver. Seems to have been getting aggressive lately but probably right - a new set is in order.

    I think if I didnt have alignment issues I could run these to 120 km easy.

    Hard to tell but the rubber lugs marked with - are noticeably flatter than the ones adjacent to it marked +. Wierdest wearing I've seen.
    High spot and low spots.
