    New to the Tacoma community. I recently purchased a used 2017 trd off road with 30000 miles. The previous owner installed a leveling kit and 275/65r18 nitro exo grappler’s. Front tire’s have front to back tread wear almost like feathering or heel toe? Anyone else having this issue? Also don’t know when tires were rotated last.

    That’s what I was thinking. Just wasn’t sure if the coil overs could handle the difference in tire size. Mainly cause it’s a spacer over the coil to level it out

    My AT tires do that on the front. However, after I rotate every 10K miles the fronts go to the back and the backs wear smooth. It all works out for me.
    Pretty sure it's just tire scrub on turns, because I know it's not air pressure or alignment. Also it's not real bad wear on my truck, just feathering a bit.
