The front passenger side wheel is wearing a lot on the inside. I have the gbody 8" wheels all the way around with stock size tires. The front drivers side wears evenly, but the passenger side is bad. Does this look like a 8"wheel issue or something else?

I would think that the tire wear would be and alignment issue.
The rub on the inner fender could be from many different things. What's your suspension setup ? All stock or aftermarket parts ? What size tires are you running up front ? You can usually get away with running a 245 but if your front springs are are old or sagging that maybe part of the reason.

For the tire wear check tie rods, ball joints, bearings make sure all is tight then check the alignment.

Camber, toe, and caster can effect tire wear, not to mention tore inflation and road conditions. Most likely it's a camber issue but you need to get an alignment at the very least.
