I only have about 15k miles on my all season tires and they are completely bald about 1 1/2 inches on the inner edge of my front tires.

The rears are fine (though cupping which might be because of bad tires).

I just had an alignment when I got the new shocks/springs about 14k miles ago.

Anyone got any ideas? Could it bad a bad alignment with too much neg camber?

I had the same issue on mine- too much toe out was the culprit.

I would bet its toe out. You really cannot tell if the tire is toing in or out by looking at it. It is easier to tell if the camber is out of adjustment. On my 94 Mustang I had a full Global West suspension kit which included adjustable Camber/Caster plates and when I tweaked the suspension I was able to tell when the camber was wrong.

Thanks guys - sounds like I need to go back to the alignment place!!

Anther quick q on tires: so I have the spare (Conti something) that I can use to replace in the front and purchase just one additional tire (and keep one worn out in the spare only for emergency), do I need to put both tires of the same brand (Conti) in the front so that the tread matches, or can I put in tires of different brands (I think they have to be the same, but want to confirm) - like one conti and the other Fuzion?

There are many many many reasons - please just don't tempt the gods...
