Default Extreme inner tire wear

Hi guys,

Anyone have any ideas about the likely culprit for this?

Volvo V70, 2009.

The tire in question (in the pic) is barely 8 months old. The other tire is the same.

I swapped the engine in May (tranny came out with it, so removed driveshafts etc too). Ended up replacing the N/S shaft as it was on its way out, and inner and outer tie rods and hub got replaced too. Control arms looked pretty worse for wear both sides but kept them as couldn't source new ones easily.

Passed its MOT in June, so the wear has occurred since then.

Is there a way to adjust camber on these? Could the control arms be to blame?

Cheers!
