If its the oem RE050, and the uneven wear is over 19k miles, you are relatively not "horribly" out, but it is indeed opposite of the wear pattern you should see, unless you track/mountain run often.

Over inflation - I would think that wears the middle of the tires more and not the outside?

Get it checked out, no point of having a sports car that's out of alignment, as it directly affects how the car handles.
