I picked the car up last night and Ive put 150 miles on it. New front and rear LCA, alignment, and Cup 2 tires. Front camber is -2.4, rear is -3; front toe is 0 and rear is 4mm in.
It turns in much faster at highway speed. Its a little noisier in the back over bad/rough roads, but no noticeable difference most of the time. And rocks seem like they kick up worse if I drive over them (I can hear them in the back more; at least it seems like it). Im happy enough with the road use, but really looking forward to the next track weekend in 4 weeks. Ill probably put between 1500 and 2k miles on between now and then, so Ill monitor wear as I go.

Quick update. About 1k street miles and very little wear (maybe 1/64?) and no noticeable difference across the width.
Road trip coming up over the weekend (short, around 6 or 700 miles).
First track weekend with the new setup in 2 weeks. Another one two weeks after that. And one more two weeks after that.

Give it another 2-3k, on cup 2s by then you should definitely see uneven wear. Even at maxed camber on my stock suspension, after 9k miles and 10 autocross events on PS4S the insides (from street use) and outsides (from AX) seem noticeably more worn than the centers.

If you follow Jeff Rhoades on IG. He has 152,000 miles on his Stage 2 991.2 with Cup 2 tires and literally off roads it thru state parks, long road trips, and track time. He even camps on his car with a roof tent. He told me that he likes Cup 2s way more than 4S tires and doesnt have any issues even on dirt paths or rain. Makes me want to try them when Im due for my next set
