    Dual axle tire wear?

    I have a dual axle trailer. The inside half of the rear tires have excessive wear. Anyone know what is causing this type of wear? Front tires are perfect.
    Thanks!

    ANy chance it the trailer is hitched high making it ride tongue up?

    Next guess would be a bent rear axle.
    If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
    nothing else matters.​

    Trailer ride is level. I may have to consider a bent axle. Trailer is reaching its 20th birthday.

    sounds like the Toe In is misaligned or ride height is off some.
