Too wide of a wide wheel will cause the tire to wear the outside edges....but it would have to be well outside the tires wheel width nominal width ranges set by Bridgestone.
I would drop by a real Bridgestone truck tire dealer and let them check the tires for actual wear issues. If the tires outer edges has worn enough you can tell if the wear was feathered all one way as in suspension problems or alignment problem/wrong wheel width.
