It seems like just a few months ago I replaced all tires and now I see the RETURN of the inside edge of each rear tire worn down to the belt. The outside edge has nearly 90% tread left.

The wear seems to be a bit uneven. I hear about the camber being an issue but this irregular pattern seems to indicate something else, but on both sides? I guess I should look at my bushings/control arms? Any thoughts about this tire wear. All 3 pictures are of the same tire.

I was ready to take to alignment shop and tell them to set the camber different to prevent this type of wear.

Sorry to say but you've got worn suspension components. Your best bet would be to do a complete rear end suspension rebuild. Do yourself a favor do not use cheap aftermarket replacement parts. At least do an OEM like Lemfoerder. That wear that your exhibiting in the pictures is excessive. You need to address the suspension problems first before wasting another set of tires.
