Tire Cupping and Camber? Yokohama S-Drives

Hey all,

I'm currently running -5 deg neg camber in the front and -4 deg neg camber in the rear. I am very well of the uneven tread wear that this setup might exhibit.

I've driven these tires from new to nearly 3k miles. Today, I dismounted all 4 tires to see what the wear pattern was like.

There seems to be slight cupping going on in the inner edge of the tire. My toe has been zeroed out since I mounted the tires, and I have heard multiple sources say that negative camber does not cause cupping. Anyone else experience this, particularly on Yokohama S.Drive tires? I'm not sure what route I should go to go about solving this.

I am on BC Racing Extreme low suspension, 10k spring rates front/rear. I am curious as to why there are already signs of cupping going on even though my tires and coils were new.
