Unusual front tire wear on my 2017 F-Type R

Just took my 2017 F-Type R to the dealership for the 1 year service - had 11k miles on it and was told I need new front tires as the inside of both tires was worn bald. The rest of the tire was fine. I said that doesn't make sense as the car is in perfect alignment, etc. He said because of the camber to increase handling they wear out that way. Smells like BS to me but figured I'd ask you all.

Thanks - new member

Andy I'm thinking this is correct. I had an Infiniti G35 and it had the same issue. To get around that I started taking the two fronts tires off the rim (periodically) and swapping sides but keeping the direction correct...if that makes sense.
