Unusual tyre wear

Hello all...
I'm getting some very unusual tyre wear on the osf of my ZTT, right on the very inside edge of the tread. I can only think this is caused by contact with something as its nothing like tracking wear, but I cannot see it contacting anything on either extreme of steering lock. The closest thing might be the underside of the spring cup, but how would that be possible if it's a fixed distance from the tyre?!

I'm very confused. I assume something is so worn that it's allowing so much movement the tyre is touching something. Any ideas what it might be?

Thanks!
