So I bought tire not more than 6 months ago for my S14 and I got the car aligned because who ever had it before dropped it and never aligned it. My ? is now my tires are almost bald from the inside again what could it be? Someone told me that I needed to get camber adjusters. Suggestions anyone?

sounds like you have too much camber

most of the weight / contact is on the inside of the tire when you get that kind of wear because of cambbbbbbbberrrrrrrr

could be a camber and toe problem. we need to know some specs.
camber:
toe:
wheel size: width and offset.
did the car pull?

Toe is what eats tires fast like that.

Yeah, bad toe kills tires alot faster than bad camber.

definately toe. measuring with a tape measure, i had toe off by half an inch.
ate thru my tires to the metal within one tank of gas.
get aftermarket toe rods and go get alignment
