    Been getting inner tire wear as well as uneven tire wear. My tacoma is starting to shake a lot when I drive. I got an alignment about 3 months ago. Is it worth it to get my tires flipped on each rim or any suggestions?

    How often do you rotate tires?
    What pressure do you run?
    What tires?

    You may think about getting it aligned again, who did the last alignment?

    I just because you got it aligned doesn’t mean it was right. Recently had our FJ aligned after some suspension work. The toe was out quite a bit on the left and steering wheel was not straight. The thought being just because it was a line doesn’t mean it was a line properly. Have a different shop look at it

    Put new tires on it and have it realigned. Having an alignment done won’t magically fix tire wear caused by it previously being out of alignment. And flipping the tires won’t fix the shaking if it’s caused by tire cupping.

    looks like you have a 4 inch lift - was it installed correctly? are any of the suspension or steering components worn and need to be replaced, such as the ball joints?

    before getting another alignment, i would determine if something else may be causing the uneven tire wear.

    Worn components will cause shaking and bad wear patterns aswell. assess all ball joints, wheel bearings, upper and lower control arm bushings. Do you have the previous alignment print out?
