Default Rear Camber? Extreme tire wear.

In December my rear drivers side tire blew out. I put the spare on (same tire as the one that blew out). Within the last month I noticed a lot of vibration coming from the car. Yesterday I put a new tire (new spare) on the passenger side, driving home from work today the rear drives side blew out.

Both tires were worn to the belts on the inside within 6 months. I'm not really familiar with these cars because other than replacing the radiator I havent worked/looked at it as all my time and garage space is going to the rx7. Can you adjust the rear camber?

It's somewhat adjustable, as long as the car isn't lowered too much. There is a cam bolt for adjusting the rears. Bring it into a trustworthy alignment shop.
