Well, the camber may not be off. That's just what happens to rear tires on our cars from what I'm seeing. Mine wear 5x faster on the insides than the outsides.

So, I've taken to knocking off the rubber and putting it on the other side of the car on the fronts and backs every 3-4k. Directional tires can't be rotated, but this kind of rotation does make them wear more evenly and last longer.

When you get those new tires, do have them road-forced balanced and get a laser four wheel alignment. I do hope it's just a bad alignment issue, but our cars do wear out tires faster than one could imagine. I read on the PCA Q and A area that tires rarely last more than 15k... however, some forum contributors are saying they get more. I have no idea how they do that though.
