Magnitude of front camber is a factor of how it all bolts up (and Porsche show they got this wrong in the early days and had to introduce slotted...
I don't have RWS.
I do have the problem.

I don't believe Claude as:
1) I don't have RWS on my GTS (but the tyres that just came off tell me there is something very wrong)
2) The air suspension does not 'constantly' adjust height - only when going through set points etc. I don't see how this is any worse than normal bump/roll camber...
If it was Peter you spoke to then I think you mean Goodyear ;)
Regardless, I don't think excessive camber caused your issue -see: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/taycan-problem-potential-catastrophic-tire-failure.16788/post-493260
I had both rear tyres replaced today and wonder if my findings show excessive tyre shoulder wear is not due to camber settings? To explain:
Both (original) tyres were well worn (to legal limit-ish) having done now ~16,000miles. The wear was 'relatively even' but not perfectly even:
- the left...

You can't officially adjust the front camber (though it must be set/regulated from the factory by virtue of the bolt positions) - only balance it out from left to right:

The TSBs are specific to either J1.1 or J1.2 (as you rightly point out). Please don't misinterpret that the J1.2 pressures are approved for J1.1 cars.
I am merely observing that J1.2 started out with pressures identical to J1.1 (all three TBSs 16/9/24, 8/11/24, 3/12/24) indicating that there...
Assuming we're talking 5-seater saloon on summer tyre, Turbo/turbo S has been:
2.8 (half-load)
2.9/3.1 (loaded)
On GTS the TSB have always been:
2.6/2.7 (half-load)
2.8/3.1 (full load)
(@SoccerMan94043 I have no idea what's up with your door sticker, doesn't match TSBs!)
similarly 4S has...
I can only imagine the sidewall flex/compression under load is causing this wear - and Porsche’s attempts to increase pressure is an easy lever to reduce sidewall flex (at the cost of comfort and possibly grip).

Please note matrix headlights are notoriously hard to certify in the US, so even if you could turn them on, you'd be running completely illegally;

According to TSB NHTSA 10187852 (15/2/2021) Porsche said "there are no adjustment options" - not sure if the unofficial way does each side independently or not.
Great link, doing some digging and there seems to be a string of TSBs on tyres:

What I can't understand is what driving condition leads to wear of the tyre shoulder (over and above the main tread)?
I thought 'progressive' driving typically affected outer (not inner) shoulders.
Low tyre pressures would surely get both shoulders (and I keep my pressures slightly above...
I thought I was on top of mine, but I just checked today (happened to be parked at full lock) and found:
Fr R: Tyre shoulder worn to cord in placed however only on shoulder - main tread worn evenly and measures a good 4mm all over (original tyre after car done 15,000miles). Not easily...
This looks awesome! I've been looking for a suitable dashcam and this could certianly be it due to 4k front footage, front/rear/interior coverage, night capability, HDR, parking surveillance and WiFi offload.
I would love to test this and agree to the terms (and to post a review within 2 weeks...
