HPDE by itself will cause excessive wear. More camber will even wear pattern (and add grip), to not rip just tire outsides on track.
Suggested numbers by RCE are somewhere in between for DD only car (with optimum camber in -1.5 to -1 range) and track (-3+ front, -2.5 rear), just as you asked.

Or if you asked about impact on DD wear .. too slight to care imho. Camber impact on wear is minimal, and of extent to -2.5 shouldn't be noticeable. Excessive toe do wear tires much more, but hence the suggestion by RCE for zero toe front, and slight toe-in rear (some extra stability for acceleration out of corners). Those suggested numbers will also make car understeer less in turns (stock camber is 0, rear -1.1, so more camber front will make it push less).
From my experience, total wear from 5 trackdays was way more then DD wear from whole season. So imho you shouldn't care much about DD wear, but on track with more camber wear will be better . Tires are just consumables, like brake pads & fuel. On track they wear much much faster.

Also one can get two camber bolt set (spc 81305 + whiteline KCA416) for both lower mount holes. Together maxed out worth upto -2.3 at stock height, -2.5 for lowered.
