I have a Q,, i just noticed that my two front tires are wearing on the inside thread i have not had them rotated since i had my truck which has about 21,000, should they be wearing like that this soon, since they say rotate them every 7500 miles, and if i was doing it this would be my 3rd time coming up, any suggestions?

Larry, have you had your front end alignment checked lately? Sounds like it could be out of alignment.

Actually the guideline is 6,000 miles, not 7,500 like on most vehicles.... SUVs and Trucks usually wear on the tires harder due to the extra weight of the vehicle and size of the contact patch. Cars and most minivans are able to go 7500. And not rotating them for 21K miles can definitely contribute to uneven wear, just like running over/under inflated.
