Axle Alignment
Both tires on the door side of my trailer are showing are showing quite a bit of wear on the outside two inches. The tires on the other side are wearing perfectly. I have one small slide on the door ...

Also take a level and measure each wheel vertically and horizontally. Again the measurements should be virtually equal. The vertical will probably be off of straight perpendicular but the difference on each of the wheels should be the same.
Except if both wheels on the same side are off camber by the same amount. They will both measure the same, but both can be well out of spec. You can compare to the other side. But that really doesn't tell you anything.
Don't try to cheap out. Get a professional analysis. It would be bad for you to go through all these shenanigans and then find yourself replacing a couple $400 tires after another 1000 miles.
