Hello Steve Sherwood. Can you tell me why are my Sumitomos cupping when my alignment is dead on?

Sounds like I am the cupping expert...which is not the case
I had P7000SS that cupped...very very strange...I had a slight amount of negative camber in front...when I rotated the tires after about 10,000 miles the tires howled...and cupped.
I don't know exactly why...I would defer to some of our tire experts like Eddie@Tirerack or that A4 owner that works at one of the tire companies (I forget the owners name?)

I'm not an cupping expert, either, but I think it's just a trait those tires have.
I have heard several people complain about cupping on Sumitomos. I have heard about it on other tires, too.
