We assume your going to an axle shop. From what my buddy tells me when he took his camper in.All four tires should have a slight toe in.They were able to straighten his axles without removing them.On our 16 Eagle we have two bad axles one replaced under warranty. Thanks

If the axles are not aligned properly from the factory or a bent axel has occurred rapid tire wear will occur. The rapid tire wear can’t occur from slow 45 or 90 degree turns of short distance, the rubber compound simply doesn’t allow this, even if driving over sandpaper. It takes miles of driving to result in the wear you see in the previous post.
