Questionable tire wear

I apologize in advance if this was already addressed, i couldnt find the thread.

I am the 2nd owner of my 2012 TRD. Ive noticed increased tire wear only on the outer edges of the front tires. When I bought the truck, i was told that the previous owner put a leveling kit on it.

Compared to a few other stock tacomas, i feel that he may have put a small lift on it. Any help on this issue?

 

It looks like you’ve got a spacer lift in the front but you’d need to take a picture of your leaf springs for anyone to tell you about your rears. Either way, those tires are shot and need replacing. An alignment after the new tires are on should fix whatever is causing the uneven wear.

 

If it was me I'd get rid of the spacers and take the truck back to stock specs and then buy new tires/alignment...start fresh.

That opinion is based on the fact that I use my truck as my daily driver.

 

That is what i was thinking. Then id be able to rebuild and know exactly what i have.

 

Looks like it wasn't properly aligned after the block went on.

 

Your alignment is trashed. Looks like too much toe in.

 

It's not toe-in, it's Camber/Caster:

But the answer is the same. Get an alignment before you get new tires.

It appears all it needs is an alignment, although you should check the bushings to make sure they are not the cause. If you will be off-roading, look for a lifetime alignment; it will be worth it down the line.

 

Thanks for all the feedback! I had my thoughts on the cause and just wanted a few more opinions.
