excessive tire wear on inside of front tires

I had a stock '05 TL and was having issues because of some seriously dented rims therefore 3 months ago I put on some aftermarket rims that were the same size as the stock rims. It's been 3 months and about 6K miles and my tires which should have about 25k left on them (kumho all season) can't even be balanced because the insides are worn WAY down. I've checked and someone said that this is a camber issue but they also said that the cambers are not adjustable on this car. Does anyone have any idea what the reasoning for this could be. Will a standard alignment fix this? The wear is on both front tires.

Thanks for any help...

it's not camber because u cannot adjust camber for this car, that is unless you have a front camber kit.

Main problem here is the TOE.

You can fix it with an alignment. Would you happen to have a aftermarket suspension by any chance?

I'm sure what happened was when you seriosuly dented your rims, your TOE got knocked out out of OE spec... Fix it and you should be fine!
