sitting straight the tires are fine, around a corner they flex and are noticably sticking out on the bottom.
I'm puzzled by this description...are you describing major, visible flexing of the tire sidewall/shoulder? That can be seen with underinflated or wrong-spec tires. P-tires for example being more flexible than ST's will behave that way.
Shoulder wear is also most often associated with underinflation.
All four tires wearing in exactly the same area sure seems to point to a single cause. And it sounds like it's been going on for years, too. It's hard for me to believe that the torsion axles on such a small recreational unit would go "bad" so quickly. Some folks (including me) are still on original torsions that are more than thirty years old!
As you suspect, your Dexter torsion axle has no serviceable parts, though if it's bolted on a shop may be able to do a little adjusting- but I don't see how that would alleviate the symptoms you describe.
