Axle shift(maybe seperating tread) Photos

Just noticed that my rear axle on curbside is rubbing the slideout frame bracket. I checked the measurement of the leaf spring and the u bolts and it is the same as the other side but the space between tires is about 1" or 1 1/2' different, Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks

UPDATE did more investigating and it appears the tread is separating because that tire tread has a crown and is not flat like the rest of them. Chalk one up for BLOW MAX just finished a 1700 mile trip and there are about 7500 miles on the tire's

I highly recomend the new Goodyears Endurance ST tires that are made here.

I do have a question about trailer tires. Seems like a hot topic. Yet there is little debate about light mini pickup truck tires. Cannot mini pickup truck tires be substituted?

Thanks for the update. I was scratching my head. It had to be something "weird"


I am calling tomorrow it maybe still be under warranty and if so I will get one but if not maybe buy 5 new tires, Sailun or Goodyear

Not very clear statement. Especially if a spring center bolt has snapped allowing the leaf stack to shift off center.


I measured from the u bolt to edge of bottom spring see my update think the tread is separating
