What the guy meant was that they have camber wear. Camber is not an object, it's a description of the angle of the tire relative to the ground.

But in reality, the wear on the tires are most likely from incorrect toe in combination with negative camber. Go to tirerack.com, it will explain all things related to tires and alignment, etc.

think of it this way....if you are standing in front of the car looking head on at it, normally, this is how your tires would look:

this is how they look if you have camber:

or:

if the tires are sitting like that, do you see how that would produce uneven wear on them?
