Uneven tire wear on only one wheel means you have worn out suspension component(s).

Both upper sets of suspension bushings and the lower set of suspension bushings! It's throwing your toe off. If your bushings are OK, then you need to adjust your toe with tie rod.

is it your wheel or the tire with wear on the outside...?
if it's the wheel, stop hitting the curb, or raise up the airbag suspension you have! hee hee. if it's the tire, more than likely you have a bad upper control arm bushing. I would just change out the entire uca, and get a new ball joint at the same time! DieselGiant has a Nice pictorial on his site with part #'s and everything for fixing this very problem! John

if it is bad camber you should be able to see it visually.
it might also be too much toe in and you just havent noticed the wear on the other side tire as much. tom w
