Tire inner wear

I have uneven inner wear on my tires. I had alignments few times but it seems to continue. I wonder if this was caused by getting Bilstein HDs installed, I think i gave it a slight lift on suspension. Anybody else have this problem?

its eitehr toed out or the camber is negative.... if it reoccurring there is a problem.... the alignment techs should fix it or know where t olook for problems... if its been doen several times and each time they say its fine, contact their corporate office.... whne people did htat where i used to work, we used to give them new tires not to say anything about it....

if its reoccuring and the actual printouts they give you say its fine, then look toward busted balljoints, or tierods..... it could be any number of things but those are the most common to fail

I think I am part of this recall. Mine is 01....

I have BFG AT KOs but got the "lifetime alighnment" from Firestone. it seems more like "lifetime of alignment problems"

I just feel like 4runners are so picky about tires and alignments. I had some balancing issues and now this...then Ebrake adjustment issues and noises...blah blah
