Odd tire wear

The outer part would probably indicate over-inflation of that tire.

Ummm....no. Underinflation wears the inside and outisde tread edges, overinflation wears the center band.

May not necessarily be curb damage or bent spindle/axle. The trailer could have been mis-aligned when it was built. If the axle was not attached exactly square to the frame, the mis-alignment will produce scrubbing on the tire edge as you describe. What do the other tires look like? Any others worn unevenly? But as mentioned a shop that does trailer alignment should be able to fix it.

Or you can buy the Correct Track alignment kit and do it yourself like I did.

Correct Track will NOT allow adjustment for toe or camber. It will only adjust tracking..You still will need to go to an alignment shop to get a real alignment. I think many people have a misconception about the Correct Track kit. It will only square up the axles with the frame (tracking) but it doesn't allow for anything else. One or more wheels could still be off.
