Default HELP! Extreme tyre wear

I have a 97 uk turbo wagon. The two back tyres in the middle to outside edge have worn in a matter of 10 miles the outside edge has got a lip on it where it has worn the tyre. Took the car down to my local tyre place who think it could be either shock absorbers or camber. Any ideas?

Cheers
Darren

I would take it to a specialist like Powerstation for a full geomatery set up/check.

It sounds like camber is all wrong and it's running on the outside edges.

Thanks for the reply m8. Taking it down to a place that does camber checking tomorrow hopefully they can sort it. It'll take a set of tyres to get to powerstation lol. But might get the geometry checked.
Cheers
