Uneven Tyre Wear?

Noticed the front N/S tyre has worn unevenly.

If the wheels were out of alignment I would of expected both N/S and O/S to be the same...?

Anyone else had anything similar?

Other info:
- Tyres are GG AT
- No other issues with car (no strange wobbles/sounds etc.)

Worn tyre;




Should look like this (albeit this is the rear N/S, the front O/S has tread right across the tyre as below);

There is more to wheel alignment than toe, so could be the Caster & Camber is way out on that corner.
Classic wear if LH front had hit something (Kerb etc) in the past.

just had mine 4 wheel aligned and it was the rear that was out, which caused issues at the front.

Don't get the alignment done with that worn tyre on, it can skew the readings, needs new or evenly worn tyres for best results.
