They are talking absolute bollocks, just get a pair! However, what they should have told you is that your tracking is out on the front and you have too much toe-out to wear just the inside edges. However, if it is less than 10% of the tyre, I'd swap the tyres over (and get the tracking done to 2mm overall toe-in on the front), so that they become the outside - unless of course they are handed e.g. like Paradas?).

With the existing toe-out, I bet it wanders and tramlines at speed in a straight line?

Parallel is the factory setting, but it will still wander due to the fact that in forward movement, the bushes deflect and it goes to toe-out when you're driving. This is why you set it to a small amount of toe-in . Ignore the factory settings and go for the 2mm toe-in - will make the car MUCH more stable !
