its definitely alignment. a faulty tire will not just wear like that. could be tow, camber, etc.

more than likely its excessive negative camber. Could also be toe-out on that wheel..... get the alignment checked.

Rub your fingers flat against the tire...If it slides along easy one way and kind of grabs going the other way than its "feather edge" wear which would mean your toe is out...

My guess is its your camber if its only the inside of the tire... Either way an allignment should get you fixed up...

im thinking also mayb you hit a pot hole this winter. and bent a strut tower or control arm if you hit hard enough. which would cause a canber problem.

toe is gonna be more of a choppy tread across the tire.
