Odd tire wear
What would cause this odd wear on only the outer tread blocks? Inner tread blocks are smooth/round. These are the only two tires on the trailer that show this type of wear.

Yes semi trailer. Was being used by a friend of mine who delivers camper shells out West for Leer/SnugTop. Relatively light loads for a semi.
Considering this info, I’d say it’s a combination of out-of-balance trailer tires, worn out shocks (do semi trailers have shocks?), and over inflation for the load. It looks like all the weight was being carried on the center crown of the tire, which would have been flattened out more with a heavier load.
