The outsides are wearing in faster, that is odd. How can you tell? What are numbers did someone take a look at them?

You should have someone check your tires to see how bad they are. If they're more than +-2 from the center or inside an alignment won't do much at that point. Don't waste your money on an alignment until you have them looked at, and I recommend you not go to a dealer because they will just say "oh an alignment will fix this" when it likely won't.
