[Vwdiesel] Unusual tire wear question

Hello all - 01 Golf GLS here, 164k miles, stock 15" alloys.

So today I walked up to my car and the front wheels happened be turned
against the lock, showing the inside edge of the tread, and I noticed that
the very edge of the inside shoulder is looking pretty worn.  I checked all
4 and they all show it to some extent, but the front passenger side is the
worst.

I've also had a nagging feeling for a while that the suspension is feeling a
little worn/off, but nothing specific.  I know enough to know that this is
probably the result of too much camber, but I wonder if anyone can suggest
what suspension component(s) might be worn and causing this issue, or are
likely to need renewal at this age/mileage?

Thanks for any suggestions.
