Tire shaving to fight premature camber wear?

For the most part we as X owners are plagued by premature wearing of the rear tires on the inside. I was tooling around on the net and read about tire shaving. It mentioned that tires can be shaved to fit a particular camber setting for longer wear. Idea is that the tire is always riding on the entire tread instead of more weight focused on the inner edge.

Anyone heard of or have any experience with this? I just got a new set of cheap tires for the rears so I might consider as this set is as good any to experiment with.
