Arrow not your usual drop spring question, just a general spring question?

so my truck has 3 inch drop springs and a 1/2ton swaybar up front

I take corners in my truck as if I drive a corvette and it shows I have had 4 pairs of tires on the front end in the last year due to the outsides wearing out but half the year was no camber or swaybar and now that I have alot of camber and a swaybar the outside tire edges last longer

so my idea is maybe getting some new one ton springs and cutting coils to to lower it 3 inches again and have alot stiffer spring rate then i was going to go with a urethane 1 ton swaybar

what do you guys think? right now im focused on keeping my wallet and truck level through the corners

drop spindles and a rear swaybar are in the works right now to add better handling
