Ok I searched for : back tire leaning in, back tire leaning, and tire leaning. Came up with nothin helpful.

The back tire of my GS is leaning in on the top... the suspension is stock, no lowering or anything like that. So what could be the cause of this?
 
put it up in the air and look at the bushings, busted spring/ shock. bent control arm, could be alot of things. the best way for you to find out is to put it up and look at both sides and see whats different. good luck.
 
is it doing anything "funny" or did you just notice it. my 95 gst has quite a bit of camber to it i.e. tires lean in at the top i noticed when i was following it the other day.
 
When the tire leans in at the top it's referred to as having negative camber. Since your rear suspension allows for camber adjustment it could easily be as simple as adjusting it to the proper value. Do a little research on adjusting the camber on your car and then climb underneath and inspect the components once you've learned what they all do.
