Chewing up right front tire

Uneven tire wear is a classic sign of a bad alignment. If you have the wrong camber or caster setting on the wheel, you will get too much wear on the outer or inner edge of the tire. Basically, the inner edge wearing means the top of the tire is tilted inwards more than the bottom, putting more pressure on the inner edge of the tire. Changing the struts usually changes the camber setting, since the bolt holes in the strut tend to be a bit bigger than they need to be.

Basically, an alignment involves three things: toe-in, caster & camber. Toe-in would affect your tracking the most; it changes how far your wheels are pointed left & right. If your toe-in settings are off, your steering wheel will not be straight when the car tracks straight. Camber adjusts the angle between the top and bottom of the wheel. Caster adjusts the angle of the wheel when it turns right or left.
