Nee Some Help

Got A 2005 Ford F-250 SuperCab 5.4 it did not come with the plow prep package and i do plow with it the delear told me they would install the plow prep so what they did was put some timberns in it and ever since i picked it up from delievery ive been having problems with the tires cupping and i was wondering what everyone things it could be. the dealer cant find the problem ive put 22000 miles on it and the first set of tires i pulled of for the winter had 18000 miles on them and they where cupped pretty bad.

My solution is they installed it thats there problem just keep taking it back until they fix it. The truck is still under warranty so they have to fix it. Good Luck

First thing that comes to mind is front end alignment, Next comes shocks then
Tire inflation/Rotation.

Maybe they never aligned it after putting the extra weight on it.
