This is most likely a sign of camber wear possibly toe wear, not under or over-inflation. Since the tire was previously on the same side of the car, you have too much negative camber (tire leaning in towards car). When you lower the car, the wheels generally will push towards negative camber, thus, you should generally get an alignment after suspension changes such as yours. Hope this helps.

Just for reference, it is sometimes hard to visually distinguish between say -1 degree camber and -3 to 4 degree camber. You can usually download free apps for your phone that you hold up flush with the wheel to gauge camber angle.
