Also, what tire brand & model are you running...or what catagory is the tire...summer, all-season, etc...or do you know what the tire tread rating is on the tire..and what's your daily or monthly mileage like?

On top of the questions posed above....
What tire pressure are you running? What are your driving habits? Is the tread wear even across the tire, edge vs centre, inner vs outer? Front, rear, or both axles? What was your tire life like prior to the switch to larger tires?

Although I had all the rear suspension parts replaced but the ball joint I was killing tires like crazy.
The ball joints were both bad but hard to tell without releasing the pressure from the air spring. After I replaced them I have even wear on the rear tires. Make sure you fix the rear suspension before spend any more money on alignment and tires as I did.

I am wondering why you are ignoring the rest of the questions?
What is the tire pressure you are running? What is your tires thread wear # I have Dunlops on my Mazda CX7 and the # is 500 and I remember that some Michelins have 240 or so.So that # can be a good indicator of what to expect from your tires wear wise. Quote:
