Front-end alignment

Front-end alignment
I've noticed recently the front tires on my S40 have worn very badly on the inside edges to the point that I now need to replace the tires. I'm wondering if an alignment will be able to keep this from happening again or do I need to replace some suspension parts (I was planing replace parts anyway) to prevent this in the future. Is this a strut bushing issue or some other bushing? The right side tire is worn more then the left side and I've noticed that when making right turns there is a noticeable pounding feeling atthe front of the car.

RE: Front-end alignment
My wife took the car in for the tires and alignment and the shop said that it only needed the alignment (no additional parts). I have not driven the car so I don't know if anything has changed. Time will tell if the wear comes from the same inside part of thetread.

RE: Front-end alignment
I had been very good about filling with air but the way the tires wore on the inside part of the tread was rather unusual. I have never seen tires wear that severely on one side. My mother in-law has a 2000 V70 Cross Country AWDand that car eats up tires every 20K but they wear very evenly.
