Why is my tire leaning?

Ok I think your spindle bushings in the rear are broken the squealing is from the tire rubbing against either the strut or rear control arm with the car on the ground look at the wheel to see if it A ) is leaning in on top from the rear of the vehicle B) turning inwards from either the front or the back the spindle has a front/rear bushing on it C) or the rear control arms have a bad bushing or are bent did you hit anything or drive off a curb or slide into an object in the rain like a curb then this is it look at the tire for wear marks it will point you to the possible contact points D) the rear wheel bearing/hub may be loose or shot causing the wheel to lean inwards E )the rear strut on that side has failed making the body dip down as well as the stabilizer link and the tire is contacting the spring seat or the inner fender F) also there is rear wheel alignment settings that are out from all described above but if you drive normal and it has stock tires on it then it's a bushing or arm that's doing it you must go to the rear and feel for excessive heat on the tires so you know which or both wheels to check

Some Chrysler ,Jeep and Dodge vehicles have ttye pressure sensors calibrated to the vevicle,so therefore if you change the
tyres to a different type you will need to take your vehicle to a C.J.D.
service department to have the computer of your car re-programmed to accept the new tyres

Check the front wheel bearing. jack the vehicle up, grab the tyre and check for movement of the wheel hub while the steering is locked. Any excess movement will cause the issue.

You should get it to a front end shop, automotive shop or to a mechanic because it could be the front end wearing out badly.

This is most likely a ball joint problem. If you can, jack that tire up in the air and see if you can move the whole tire in and out from the top. Try to see if there is movement in the ball joints while you move the tire. If that is not the problem, it could be a wheel bearing, but i would check the ball joints first. Hope this helps.

Have the ball joints checked or the wheel bearings for excessive play and repair as necessary.

I think a real good place to start would be to have a front end alignment, and struts and springs checked. Most alignment places will check front end all over before performing the alignment, to insure that it isn't worn parts causing the problem, as well as insuring that you aren't driving under dangerous conditions. Your problem could be as simple as a camber adjustment to correct negative camber.( tire is leaning inward at top, which causes tire at road surface to run on inside of tread.) Weak struts and springs are also a consideration, especially if still original on a 95' vehicle.
Here's a link that explains alignment pretty well to help you understand.

I'm guessing the lower ball joints are shot. This will cause the tires to lean in on the top and and wear the inside of the tire. I could be wrong! Try jacking the front wheels up and support the vehicle on jack stands, now grab the tire top and bottom and try to rock it in and out. If there is movement, you will have to have someone watch to see what is moving, while you rock it. If it's the ball joints, they will need to be replaced before you can align it. This can be spendy, there's a lot of labor involved.

Unless there is noise or play when cornering sharply at low speeds (parking), the CV joint / boot is still ok. The joint does need grease in there and the rubber boot fitted properly very soon.

As the suspension is set, the axle does little more than provide drive. It doesn't affect toe-in or camber angle.

Camber angle (vertical tilt inwards) is a product of the suspension design, and often cannot be altered.

Weak front springs can also throw this angle out, as the vehicle sits too low.

Toe-in (forward point angle) can and must be set accurately, or you will skid about in wet weather depending which tyre grips more.

What is most important to you, is the tyre design, tread width and outer radius. Also the tyre pressures MUST be mid limit when cold on the front - otherwise excess wear will result.

Having tyres with a large contact area that are too rigid on the front will increase wear to the insides.

Also, it is good practice to rotate the tyres to even-out wear. Usually front tyres move to rear axle, and rears swap sides to front axle. If wear is uneven, pop them off and turn around before refitting. Some tyres you cannot do this with.

If you choose a tyre with a harder tread compound, or ones with "C" at the end of the code, these will again last a lot longer.
