Rear Tyres worn on inside edges in 4000 miles

A friend of mine has just called saying he has both rear tyres with exceptional wear on the inside edges after 4000 miles, its a 110 running Grabber AT3's on Boost rims, he is checking for worn Bushes and Wheel Bearings, any ideas as to what could be causing this, NormanD WE191

I think you have already nailed the likely suspects;

Bushes - worn could cause four wheel steering leading to excessive wear.
Bearings - if worn could cause the wheel to not run true, but I would expect wheel wobble to be felt if this was true.

Extreme Thought, but bent axle?!
