If i understand you right then it makes perfect sense... The more you lower a car the more it affects it camber, your tires are probably wearing on the insides. Sounds like you need a camber kit, it will set it more correct and reduce the wearing down!

If the bottoms of the tires are pointing inwards, the tops are pointing out, which makes it positive camber. You gain negative camber from lowering a car, not positive. You don't need a camber kit to cut down on abnormal tire wear, because its toe that causes the most wear. An alignment is what would be needed.
To the OP, did you get into an accident with the car? Something might be bent, causing the positive camber. Take a look under the fron suspension, see if there is any damage. Or take it to a shop, get it on an alignment rack and see what you see.
