I've got the same wear on the same tyres on the front of my sierra. I figured it was cause of my wheels bearings/kingpin bearings being flogged out which are getting fixed soon. Next set of tyres I get I will rotate more often.

yeah my bearings are all pretty new so its not that. Must just be, as someone else said, the nature of the beast...
Glad to know someone with the exact same setup has the same issue though - means its not something in need of repair =D

As said can be a normal wear pattern.
Rotate regularly.

rotated the tyres - made a huge difference to braking and steering suprisingly too... i just swapped front to back on the rims - next rotation ill drop the tyres off the rims and swap sides.
The shop i got to do it also say its common and usually caused my the weight shift on braking and steering (all the weight to the front end).
