Camber does not wear out tires, toe does.

I run similar specs on my own, but run -2.2 in the rear, as I also have M3 arms which makes my front camber -2.0. I run zero toe in front, and just a hint of toe in, in the rear, 0.04 deg. It wanders a bit on ruts, but handles well, and I still get perfectly even tire wear.

FYI, I am a BMW alignment tech.
Pretty similar results . MY car is similar to OP's. Currently -1.5 camber front and rear, 0 toe in front, slight toe-in in rear. Even tire wear, tracks perfectly straight. May increase front camber slightly to about -1.75, about max. with Dinan plates, when I come out of storage.
