Default Odd tire wearing....

So I rotated my tires this weekend and noticed my front tires wearing on every other lug. Psi is always right so no under or over inflation. Alignment was done after leveling kit was put in. And back tires looked good. Any ideas?

My work truck has Goodyear Duratracs on it and they are starting to beat out the same way. The more aggressive the tire the more likely the beat out. Once they start its a fast pass to a new set of tires!.

I have eldorado MTZs and they are a pretty aggressive pattern. I've gotten 20,000 out of them. If I make it to 30 I'll be happy. I'm gonna check out my front shocks tomorrow and report back my findings.
