Front tire cupping and ABC?

Was doing my oil change last week and norticed some extreme wear on the inside shoulders of my two front tires. Took it to the tire shop for alignment and it was already pretty close. Not enough off to account for this. The guy there said "we see cupping when struts start to wear out". I thanked him and left. But... ABC struts don't wear out like traditional struts, right? They eventually just fail and your car looks like a StanceNation car, right? The tires are Kumho, fairly soft and I got about 9,000 miles on them (also got an alignment right when I mounted them).

255/40-19

Or, is this just the price I pay for a heavy *** front end full of V-12, twin turbo goodness?
