Angry Driver's side front inner tread is bald!!!

Hello,
I went outside just now to install a pair of Kleen Wheels and I noticed that the inner tread of my driver's side front tire was completely bald! What gives? I had the tires rotated just 300 miles ago (so I guess that tire was in the rear not too long ago) and have driven it pretty hard since. I am bringing in my car later this week for misc. things like trans. fluid flush, belt replacement, etc. (I know I know, with this message board I should be able to do all that myself, I just don't have the time). I will ask for an alignment also, but what could be causing my uneven tire wear? Could they be worn suspension parts? The other front tire (which, again, was in the rear a few hundred miles ago) is also unevenly worn on the inner edge. Oh, and it is important to note that two rotations ago, these tires, which were in the front, were also wearing slightly unevenly on the inner tread. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Alex
