Bad groves in the road up here and I've heard of guys wearing the edges of the wide tires from riding the edges of the ruts.

That's just the way wide base tires wear. That's why they require 125psi, to support the center. With lower pressures the tread face depresses into the void of the center of the tire and the sidewall supported edges wear more than the centers
