} Exacltly! Unless you got serious diffferces in the circumfrence of your back and
} front tires and are going straight what is the wear?

There is more weight on the front end, so the front tires compress more,
so they aren't the same diameter as the rears. Unless you juggle the
tire pressures so that the front and rear tires roll with identical
diameters you are stressing the driveline. And unless the tires all
track each other as they get warm it won't stay that way. If it were my
truck I wouldn't do it.
