Why are trailer tires showing excessive wear on inside edges?
With your trailer unloaded look at it from the rear to see if you can detect the outward camber of the tires. If the trailer tires are dead flat on the ground without weight on the trailer, then once loaded there will be excessive force on the inside edges of the tires, which could result in the uneven wear you see.
Why are the rear tires wearing on the inside?
Inside tire wear can be caused by worn struts or shock absorbers. Worn shocks or struts allow the wheels to bounce too much, particularly on rough roads, and typically results in an inner or outer wear pattern on the tread. Worn shocks can cause you to feel the steering wheel vibrate after hitting a bump.

Can worn tires cause vibration?
A variety of tire problems can cause a vehicle to vibrate. Tires with unevenly worn tread are one of the most common culprits of a vibration. The vibration is caused by the varying levels of tread coming in contact with the road at the same time, creating an uneven ride.
What is inside the tire?
On each side of the tire, you will find something called the “bead,” which is made of a mix of wire and rubber materials. The bead connects the tire to the rim and creates a seal, preventing air from escaping. The innermost layer of the tire is the inner liner, whose job is to keep the air inside the tire.
What makes a rear wheel drive tire wear faster?
