Tire Wear

We have a 2007 Wildwood travel trailer. We just put on our second set of tires. We only had 4000 miles on the last set. They are wearing on the inside. All four tires wear the same. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Alignment is off. Take it to a shop and have them align it (which may involve bending the axles).

If all 4 are wearing on the inside, both axles are bent from too much load. Need to see what load axles they are and weight the camper. You may have to buy heavier axles in addition to new tires. Having a shop re-bend them will cure the immediate problem, but if the axles are too light for the load, they will just bend again.
