I put new tires on my jeep about 8 months ago and since ive done it they seem like the outer part of the tire is wearing faster than the innner part. Its been aligned so Im thinkin ive got to much tire pressure im at 30 psi, whats yalls opinions?

too much tire pressure causes the tire to balloon and wear in the center of the tread.
8 months...time to rotate your tires.
 
i rotated them around 6 months so thats taken care of. its doin the same thing on all 4 tires and today when i drove in the rain i noticed the outside of the tire was wet but the inside didnt have much water on it.

And too little pressure causes the opposite. You need to adjust your tire pressure.
 
Get it aligned again. I had my wifes car aligned and 6 months later it was out again. She likes to hit pot holes. I've replaced 3 wheels and 1 rotor so far. We're looking to by her a tank next time.
 
If the rear tires are wearing the same it is not likely ana alignment issue.
There is no rear alignment on a Jeep.

Any chance of a tweaked frame?For both front and rears to be pigeon toed Id be worried about bent axles or frame.

Thats what I was thinking, if tire pressure was to low it would be wearing on both inside and outside edges of the tire. If it's only on one side of the tire somethings a little catywompus.

Unless said tires came from wal-mart.:flipoff2:
