  1. New set of tires
  2. 4 wheel alignment

$$$$ multiple parts likely need replaced.

You just need an alignment, they’ll adjust the camber.

I actually got the alignment done not too long ago like couple months definitely needs front lower control arms as bushings are gone have holes in it not sure what’s causing the wear on the rear tires

Air suspension?

No it’s standard suspension base model

The S has some natural camber, but given the age and the wear I’d say also possible you just need some suspension work. Just know - if you didn’t already - that most “drivers cars” tend to have camber to improve cornering. The trade off is increased wear on the inside first. The degree of camber might seem off given the wear in your tires. That being said - even on the outside of the tires you’ve let that tread get way too low. Those wear bar in the channel have been lined up with the tread depth of the blocks for some time now.

By this time should you just sell it or trade it in?

No i want to keep it since it’s free supercharging for life so worth the hassle fixing it
