Tires becoming worn?

My front right tires has more wear then any of the others. The outer side has more tread than the inner but the tread blocks looks like that it is tearing or something.

    Yes, camber sounds off and needs an allignment. The "tearing" you refer to may be what is called "cupping" which can be a result of wheel out of balance or bad shock absorber/strut. If it's really bad, the tire may need to be replaced: I'd recommend 2 new ones.

    If it is just one tire your camber may be way out or your air pressure is very low.

    So get your tracking, balance and alignment checked.

    Sounds like you need an alignment check and probably a tire rotation
