negative camber in the rear, normal?

hi all,

I'm a new owner of a used gl350 with amg sport pack. I just had my tires replaced two days ago as it was still rolling on the factory pirelli with 25k miles. As I was driving behind my wife today I have noticed pretty obvious negative camber on the rear of the GL. I never really paid much attention before until today, was it always like that coming from the factory or is this something I should be worried about?

are these the reason why the tire wear seems so excessive on the gl?

Thanks

Tire wear seems to be excessive on most GL due to the weight of the vehicle. Or at least that is what I have been told. I do not notice a ton of camber on rears, a little, but not excessive.
