Either your pressure's are way off or your tires don't fit your wheels. Please post up your tire size, wheel size, tire pressures. This will help someone help you.

Its normal to have more wear on the inside 2/3's of the tire due to the stock alignment.

Cupping typically indicates a shock issue. Is the cupping even on both sides or more pronounced on one side?

Try getting the tires balanced. That should fix it. Also the inner tie rods are weak and can go bad with age in the front wheels. Luckily, they are cheap to replace.
