Inner wear on the rear tires

For some reason, the inner section of my rear tires are totally gone, while the rest isn't near as bad.

Just curious of what all could cause this to happen :SNSign:

if someone duct taped a knife blade to your inner fender pointing towards the tire it could happen!

rubbing on something... inner fenderwall... or something busticated in the rear suspension, i'd narrow it down but i've never really looked at the rear suspension in this beast. the only car i've ever had in which i played with the rear suspension had a single fiberglass leaf-spring, or mono-leaf spring. (yes old corvette suspension, and yes i haven't installed my rear lowering springs yet)

The wear is like you'd find on a poorly aligned car on the front tires, however it's on the back.

It's not rubbing or getting torn by anything luckily, but im hoping it's not a bent axle or anything such as that

this is more common on the newer dodge trucks but they come from the factory with... um for lack of better words... a bent axle. Basically it causes alot of inner tire wear. It is a warranty issue from the dealerships if anyone notices, or tries to get an allignment and still is getting the inner tire wear.

Other then that... um. low-inflated tires with alot of fishtailing and cornering??
