What brand tires and size are you experiencing cupping with? Are they on the front or rear? I have experienced uneven wear on rear tires. Tires were performance 225x50x16s (Firestone SV50 and Dunlop SP Sport W10). Wear was on inside and the blocks were worn unevenly front to back (more wear at the front than rear of block). This was not cupping. SAAB says it is caused by using performance tires on too soft suspension. SAAB insists it is not related to shocks needing replacement. Use the URL for the complete tire history previously posted for my car.
