NT01 life cycle and alignment

I am going to pick up another set of tires, but before I blow another $800+ on rubber, I want to make sure I'm getting proper use of my NT01's. I went straight to these tires after burning up the primacies at the track and loved them at the track and canyons over rs3 and vr1. I was DD'ing these tires as well, but I really don't drive this car much and I put the most street miles on just by driving TO the track or canyon locations. I work 3 miles from home and often use the wife's rav4 for any errands and whatnot.

Current alignment is -2* at all 4 corners. 0 tow front, 1/16" tow in at rear. I am getting some camber wear still and fear I may be driving with pressure too high perhaps, though pyrometer readings never varied so much to make me worry. I didn't cord the inside until the wear indicators on the outer shoulder were just about smeared away, and I corded the inner shoulders of all 4 at the same , with frequent rotations, but never flipped the tires once which would have likely helped.

Pictures attached. Appreciate any insight!
