You didn't mention how many miles the tires lasted but while the basic wear - on - inside - edge is common, yours might be a bit severe.
Higher pressures is wise, and can help.
Genuine Saab does have shims for the rear, front's, not sure what you can do.
It may be too late for you but I've got the same tires, I remount left-to-right before the inside edge gets too far gone, so I can get wear across the entire tread.
Some Nokians I got with my car were worn similarly, shame to toss a great tire with so much tread.
