Camber is not adjustable on the solid front axle. With bigger tires it becomes more of an issue. Get an alignment and see how far from zero degrees you are.
My tires kept wearing on the inside.
I installed a 1 degree ball joint on my left side and a half degree ball joint on my right side.
Now my tires are perfectly straight. I got the adjustable ball joints from Fast Undercar.
