whack corners very hard? consider 230kpa/or around 32psi

and by sides you mean the outer side (not inner) of the tires on both left/right (driver/passenger) wheels?
if so, consider slight negative camber alignment (-1 to -2)

if its both inner/outer side, probably just under inflate and shouldn't be alignment issues (assuming both the inner/outer side of both tires are having "even" accelerated wear)
