Okay so I have a f350 that i use for pulling only well i just got back from about 1200mile trip and the outside of my tires are balded. These tires i have only had on for about 6 months. The truck had new shocks all the way around any ideas?

QUOTE... i just got back from about 1200mile trip and the outside of my tires are balded
Were the tires installed new along with the shocks before the 1200 mile trip? SRW truck? DRW truck? Are they worn on the outside front, rear, all the way across and all along the outside....?? Got any pictures as well as more info? Were the tires properly inflated? Proper load range for said vehicle? How many miles put on these tires in this 6 month period?

If the front tires are bald only on the outside, the wheel alignment needs to be adjusted. I would suspect too much toe in. If they are bald on both the inside and outside of the tread, your tire air pressures are too low.

Yes the tires were brand new when i had the shocks put on as well as regular maintance. DRW truck. they are only wore on the outside front tires only. just all along the outside of the tire. yes the tires were properly inflated. and yes its the tires that are called for on the truck. I would say maybe 1700 miles this truck doesnt get drove only pulling
