exactly the same problem i had with my tires right after i lifted it. it was an alignment/track bar issue. whel i lifted it the axle moved a touch off center, plus the alignment moved. those two things in combination with each other created a bald PF and a nearly bald DF.

mines not lifted though but it does need an alignment. the steering is all sorts of eeffed up right now and i don't know what's going on but it's obvious the the tread wear on the tires the guy before me had was not even

There are various ways tires can affect fuel consumption. A upgrade in tire size will imply an increase in the contact area between the road and the tires, this will increase the gas consumption as there is more friction to be overcome.
