Will a loose hub cause wear on inner and outer edges of a trailer tire? Air pressure is good. Assume a bent axle would just wear on one side

Underinflation can cause that. Trailer tires in general suck monkey snatch.

Typically, that would mean the tire is under inflated.

Trailer tires need balancing also.

BrAnd new tire at the proper pressure. Replaced the last one cause it was bald on inside and out. After 200 miles on the new tire I can already see where it will wear more.

Jack it up and check for slop... tighten the nut as required. I just ordered 5 of these... https://www.walmart.com/ip/Travelstar-HF288-Trailer-Tire-ST225-75R15-117M-LRE-10PLY/936125491Absolute overkill in a #3500 axle, but I like overkill. So much is made in China anymore... who knows if Travelstar will last.

the POS tires that came with mine did the same thing. bought one new and used the spare and when those wear out i'll get good ones like them travelstars. but ya, from what i see trailer tires are usually schitty.

Bent(out of alignment) wear depends on axis. You could have a toe issue, and a camber issue. One wearing each side.
Single or tandem?
Wear on just one tire?

I'm running Sailun S637 235/80R16 G rated tires on everything except the 32' Diamond C FMAX210 and that's only because it's still running OEMs.
The last set of Sailuns I bought were made in Vietnam. They've been fantastic trailer tires.

I’m assuming the wheel has been checked to make sure it’s not bent/warped??

Wear on just one tire? Single axle, only wearing on one tire. Other side wears even.

We will see... price is right... but the BS is not yet know. TireSlayer91 is the real pro... I should have asked him first.

I can't imagine the bearings would last long enough on a hub loose enough to wear a tire like that.

Where are your Travelstars made? No idea yet... the whole tire "game" is pure BS anymore... Maybe do some Googling... I tried, but quit. I did buy some Nokians (Finland) for my trucks a while back... damn impressed. Really.
