I noticed on my door side of pod that the tire is wearing uneven on inside and outside. Little wear on middle of tire. I keep 50 pounds of pressure as tire says faithfully but tire is showing serious wear. Anybody else have issues or suggestions?

Wondering if anybody has ever had the sign of wear on part of the tires? Not sure what Trailering is but heard that word on the Alcan this past week

It could be a tracking issue, have you measured the axle position to make sure it's running straight?
The only other thing I could think of would be the brake controller set to tight, and maybe it's only braking on one side? |

After taking delivery on my 179, I noticed that the cabin appeared out of line as I looked back in the mirror. I did some measurements and found the axle was out of alignment. I took it back to the dealer and they adjusted it. The dealer installed the factory lift blocks and there is some play in the holes. If you still have problems, take it to a alignment shop and have everything measured and checked out. Dealers should have a laser tool for a correct measure. I'm sure this issue comes up with many RV's'

Thank You very much. I did find that I had a bad tire from factory, so hoping that is the issue. I am gonna have to wait until I get back to the lower 48 in the fall. Alaska doesn't have a great place to look at it. Hope you have a Great 4th. Thanks
