If you have a teenager, he's driving really aggressively. More likely, though, is someone jacked the car up with the axle, it bent, and now the tires are heavily cambered in the positive direction, like this when viewed from behind the car: \ /
If the jacking was done by a mechanic, pay him a visit. Never jack a Saab by its rear axle.
Provided it's bent, the easiest way to repair is to replace the axle, but if you are in a city with some very good alignment shops (I'm talking really good, not monkeys who are setting toe on strut cars all day) then they can bend the axle straight once again.
