Tire Wear
The inside tread of both back tires is wearing quicker than the outside. Is this a camber adjustment that needs to be made? How hard is this to do without making things worse?

Exactly! Need to do more twisty, and less straight-line, driving.

The standard factory alignment has negative rear camber. More wear on the inside is normal on a turbo.
