Rear Left camber of +0.2 ??? Camber spec should NEVER be positive. Should be like -0.3 or more.
Rear Left Toe of +1.44 A bad toe starts at like +0.30.
Your Rear left is totally whacked out. Either your car has been in an accident or suspension is damaged or bushings excessively worn.
I would say all of the above.
Total Toe should be no more than 0.35 and the closer to zero the better.
It's no surprise you are chewing up tires.
Get this fixed ASAP.
With the current alignment, driving in slippery conditions or driving aggressively or making high speed left turns, your car will probably spin out really easy.
Probably a good alignment for drifting though.

Looks like the stock toe cams do not have enough adjustment. Look into adjustable toe arms from FIGS.
Do you end up having to hold your steering wheel slightly to the right? Judging from your alignment spec, your rear left wheel is toed in while your rear left wheel is toed out.

FALKEN 552'S or 452, i ran those and lasted about what yours did. i think that tire is a 300 wear rating, which is pretty low for this heavy car. they handle good though.
