CLS550 Rear Tire Wear

The rear tires on my 2013 CLS550 4Matic (W218) are cupping (Scallping if you"re from New England)) on the inside edges.
They are worn to the point they are noisy.
Has anyone experienced this?
Before buy new tires (currently 285/35R18) on AMG Wheels)
What cause should I be looking for?
Thanks in advance !

Ahh the beauty of Mercedes negative camber. A proper aliment should fix your problem, at least for a while

Checking my rear brake pads- the caliper seems close to the rotor - 1/8th inch. It seems ok no alerts on the dashboard display.

I dont think there are sensors on the rear. If you look at the pad you will see that is is probably completely worn out.
