I'm hoping that the M2 will be a little better on tire wear overall so this site has been pretty helpful to see what has been working for others. Unfortunately, the sample size is small. At this point, I plan on switching to Michelin Sport Cup 2s and seeing how that goes. But if I keep chewing through tires, it will become economical to just get camber plates and maybe a suspension upgrade.

Ah ok that's on a 1 series. I'm sure there are some differences on the geometry and suspension setup between that car and the M2.
Not saying M2 won't need more negative camber but I haven't seen any chunking like that with stock alignment.
