That looks a lot like an alignment issue.

I put 40k miles mostly highway on my AT2s and there was plenty of life left.

You should definitely invest in an alignment as soon as you put on new tires.

I have the same tires. My truck only has 2300 miles and I can already tell the outer edges on the front tires are wearing quicker than the rest of the tires.

I think there is probably too much positive camber. When I go in for my first oil change I’ll have the dealer check the alignment.

Junk tires. I ran over a board with a nail in it (on highway boxed in couldnt avoid it) and you would think I ran over a spike strip with how the tire was sliced open. Barely had time to get over before I ran out of air.

AT2s are great tires, but not the ones that come on the F150s. Very different tread pattern. I get 60K out of a set easily.

That's an alignment issue as others have stated. Rest of the tread is decent, I suspect the rears to be much better still.

As for made in korea -- SK's manufacturing capabilities are top notch. Sure they also make kias, which have always been cheap shitboxes, but they're improving those significantly. Samsung is korean and they're a leader in displays and phones.

+1 on SK quality and manufacturing, they’re world leaders in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing.

The two rears below, less shoulder wear but I rotate them every oil change. Weird that the Ford dealership didn’t catch the alignment issue - they see the truck every oil change and tire rotation and I have the 3 year prepaid service plan. I expected them to catch things like this and check alignment.

I wouldn't expect a Ford tech to catch that, or even recommend an alignment. A quality local tire shop would have caught it, but I doubt dealership techs will do anything outside of the standard service requests, especially on a pre-paid plan ;)

I wouldn’t call Samsung the leader in phones unless you are talking about volume, generally Samsung users are lower income and the interface is more difficult to use. Several real estate/rental companies have built in android trackers in their application algorithms which step down your application priority. Statistically Android users are much more likely to be evicted or foreclosed upon than Apple iPhone users. Not even kidding, it’s a thing.

I’m not judging anyone who owns an android FYI, general statistics don’t define any single person. I’m just an android hater lol.

Used to, KIA's are super reliable and they do get OTA updates, unlike 'Merican Ford ;)

Are you one of those iPhone cult members who stand in line in front of the Apple store a week before a "new" model comes out?!

25-30k miles is pretty typical for factory tires anymore. I agree with the others, alignment is clearly off. An alignment is something that the dealer techs won't recommend until after the warranty or service contract expires, you have to specifically ask for it.
