Couldn't agree more here on how the tires seem to wear on the inside edge more. I often wonder if this is due to how much the trailer can bounce along as you go down the highway with no shock absorber, thus causing the axle to lose allignment (camber) just due to the repetitive bouncing.

I had to replace last year, but did notice one side was worse than the other, so I swapped sides to try and get a little more longevity out of the set (4 years on those I believe). Ended up that the tire that was wearing badly was out of round... so bad to the point you could see it.
