Bottomed out??

Ok guys, I tried really hard for this not to be a blonde question but I can't get any answers anywhere else. Both front tires are wearing from the inside out as if it were "butterflying" like an independant rear does. I have stock coils and stock shocks that ride like they're blown. The car was never lowered to my knowledge and the coils appear stock and complete. No damage to the lower control arms or a arms that I can tell but I can tell you this, it tracks like mad. I just had a $100 alignment not too long ago and a few months later I still have the same problem. Now, herein lies the blonde question, could the shocks be soo worn that they no longer work and have damaged the coils by riding soo rough? I am trying to get a suspension (coils, shocks and bushings) as soon as I can so I won't mind spending the money for that but I want to find out if this would fix the problem. I know that I've probably already answered my own question but also do you guys have any reccomendations for what brands to go with?? Thanks.
