Default Tires are cupped on the inside...anyway even them out?

I guess my alignment messed up my daily driven tires (Kumho 712). The tires still have real good tread all around but the insides are a bit slick (cupped). I was wondering if I ran them with a bit less air pressure causing the tire to lie down a bit more on the pavement, would this help even out the tire over time?

Flip the tires or do a mad burnout.

TJ - sounds like you over-filled the tires, if you cupped them. I would just lower the pressure and do mad donuts.
