Odd Tire Wear...have a look

[Wyley87]

I was out side having a smoke when i noticed my the tires on my truck had some odd looking wear on the outside tread. They are fairly new with low miles on them and have had regular rotations and balanceing. The entire front end except the a frame bushings have been replaced (Even the steering gear and rag joint in the steering column). What do yall think?

Not really. I think i drive like a sane normal person most of the time. Compare those pictures to this one of when they where new.

Did you have it aligned when they were new?

No i didn't. The old tires where on it at the time but it was like two years before.

Rotate your tires and have one done. Its recommended you get an alignment when you get new tires.
You might need new ball joints or tie rod ends by now.

That's very common tire wear on a GMT400 truck. You can minimize it by running a little more air in the fronts. The geometry in the front end of those trucks always wore tires on the edges from cornering.
