Hey Mike is a Hyundai Dealership in your mind a "reputable" alignment
shop? I'm just wondering about the dealership is the better bet
because if they find something wrong they can replace it. That being
said I know of a good alignment shops in my area that I would trust.

I use independent alignment shops Paul. Typically I find them to be more
expert and willing to do the necessary things like reaming out strut holes
to adjust camber. Generally, dealerships don't stray far from the factory
directions.

Hopefully, you've already had the alignment and all is now well. If not
choose a trusted shop. Dealerships offer nothing special in the way o
alignments unless they have staff that is particularly good a
alignments.
I doubt this is a camber issue. Camber measures how far the top of th
tire is tilted outward from the centerline. It's unlikely that cambe
would be out of specification similarly on each tire. Furthermore, cambe
must be far out of specification for a significant tire wear issue t
result, and it'd tend to wear the tire gradually increasing more from th
inner edge to the outer (or vice versa) rather than all on one edge or th
other.
Most likely, the issue is excessive toe in (how far one tire points inwar
compared to the other). This tends to cause severe wear on the outsid
edges of the tires, and can be compounded by hard cornering with low tir
pressures. (Excessive toe out would wear the inner edge.
