2005 BMW 325 Engine Size unknown Two Wheel Drive Automatic 55000 miles

I recently had Continental tires put on my car - which has the sports package. The driver rear tire wore out a couple months ago. The passenger rear tire just wore through to expose the wires (according to the dealership). They aligned the car and said "Both front cambers slightly out" - Would this cause the back tires to wear? I just don't know if it was the alignment or the tires.

Continental tires are original equipment for some BMW models and can wear unusually if there is something structurally "off" with the car. Has the car been in an accident? Did you replace original equipment tires at 55000 miles?
