Even so the person who did the alignment could of just threw it out of wack if he didn't know what he was doing or the machine wasn't calibrated properly . Just my opinion .
I've run my car for longer on -4 front camber - 5/6 rear camber, there is no way that camber caused this. Even toe I feel is hard to believe... OP got scammed somehow, but I haven't even seen him mention if he inspected the new tires at all after they got put on.

I had a bad alignment, toe was way off, and my rears did this same thing. Took mine 3mo to wear down.

Given that the OP said he put 2k miles on those tires during that month, it is a virtual impossibility to do that much damage to the tires that fast. Where is one of our HellaFlush guys? If anyone would have insight to how fast they burn through tires it would be some of them. I personally can't fathom that much damage in such a short time without visibly being able to look at the car and see that something was horribly off on the alignment.

The reason why I keep asking if he's been in a wreck is the fact that no matter how many alignments you do the car will never line up and some will dog track causing bad wear ....
