I got an alignment about 200 miles after installing the Revtek lift and new 285-75-16 Bridgestone Revos. Now, after about 4500 miles I've got serious tread wear on the front. The front wheels look like they are pigeon toed.

Is there something other than the factory alignment specs I should do?

Thanks Everyone!!

Have the alignment checked again, it's probably not within the factory specs now. If it is you may have some other problem, but I'm betting the toe is out of spec.

Don't have any advice to give, but let me know what you end up doing because I am considering getting the same lift on my car and I definitely don't want my tires to wear unevenly!

I'm getting a new alignment on Friday and will let ya'll know the results. Tarheelrunner - sorry for the delay on responding to your email.

Update - the alignment was way off. I got a shop with a Hunter machine to check the alignment.

The Revos were so chewed up that I had to replace them after only 5000 miles. I took the printout to the Toyota dealer, showed them the specs from the Hunter, and ask them to buy me two new front tires.

They did it!!! I'm still in a bit of shock, but they paid for two tires and the new alignment. The ride now is back to being smooth and I can really tell a difference.

Just thought I'd share the update with ya

Congrats with the dealer! Care to share which one so people will actually go to dealer that stands behind their work?

Good point gap guy. The dealer was Toyota of Boone, North Carolina. Might be a fun, but long, trip for you. BTW - awesome rig!
