looked at my fronts today before i took it to get the new rears. yes the outside of the fronts were more worn than the rest but it wasn't exessive..i think my problem is just from making hard turns. but the tire shop adjusted my alignment to make them quit this. i didn't notice the truck pulling before and its still straight so they might have been feeding me a bunch of <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> but it was free so i let em do it. now i have 2 brand new wrangler st 235s to burn down in 12000 miles. YAY!

Not sure if you have heard of these, but I have Dayton 255 70 16. I have probably 20000 on the front ones and 13000 on the back ones. When I put the new back ones on I moved the old ones to the front and tossed the old front Goodyear ones. I still have probably half the tread left on all 4 and I spin out all the time and go down dirt roads regularly. They are like 85 bucks each.
