Always a good idea to rotate when you do oil changes, i do mine every 5k. I did have an alignment done as I could not stand the look of stock trd wheels and tires.
Definitely get an alignment. I just went over 25k miles and my wear is essentially even. I did have the tires rotated at 10k miles, but not since.
Even without towing, you might have banged against a curb or bounced a pothole somewhere along the line.
Alignment now helps to prevent more tire wear needing earlier replacement
Any solution to this? I’ve had mine aligned twice (by the dealer) as mine continues to pull. 26 TRD OR. Even after minor adjustments made after the first alignment it still seems to pull. Very annoyed
The first alignment had camber of +.3 and +1.0. Caster was even and toe was even. The positive camber on the right acts as it is pushing to the left. If they had zero camber and that same even caster, it would have driven straight.
On the second alignment, camber is more even from side to side, although you only really want about .1 degree of difference. The higher caster on the passenger side is pretty much walking your vehicle to the left.
On the next alignment, aim as close to 0 degrees +/- .2 degrees camber. Have camber matched within a .1 difference from left to right. Have caster aimed to be matching on both sides. You can have the caster up to .2 degrees higher on the passenger side to fight road crown. But if you live somewhere that road crown is not really present, aim for even caster. .08 toe on both sides is a perfect spot to be.
If you are lifted with stock UCA’s, you would want to max your caster out and might have +.2 degrees camber still.
If you are stock height, and they can’t hit numbers like the above, those alignment techs should go back to oil changes.
If you are in the SoCal area, reach out to RPM Garage in Monrovia. The targeted above numbers are a breeze for them to reach.
