    2008 crewmax 4wd- I installed 33x11.9 tires on 18x9 rims. I have noticed that the front tires are wearing on the outside and seem to be tilted inward. A neighbor said my arms need to be adjusted but mine were not adjustable and would need to be replaced - sorry not a pro here..love my truck and new Toyo’s have been great...just want to make them last and do it right ...any insight or expert info would be appreciated

    You need an alignment. UCA’s (aftermarket) make it easier

    Thank you, what control arms do you recommend?

    It has 2” level spacers in front ( so I could fit these tires). I had the alignment checked, but they give you this- can’t guarantee because of off road tires (Toyo RT).. when my neighbor looked at my truck- he said the control arms need to be adjusted, then said mine weren’t...first I’ve heard of that from anyone.
    Maybe need to try off road alignment specialist?
    I was just curious if replacement of the CA was a normal thing as lifts/ bigger tires were installed.

    It shouldn't be a big project just cuz u have gotten larger tires and 2"spacers. I would get an alignment, rotate the tires, and you should see the difference
