Looks like a bad alignment for that kind of wear. I would check your control arms and tie rods to make sure nothing is broken. That could be why the alignment is off.

If you are on stock suspension and all the CAs and Tie-rods checks out okay, I would say that it is more likely an aligement issue.

If not, what are your suspension mods and what is your ride height ?
