The CR-1s seem to need more camber to wear more even. I had one Falken start to delaminate on the left front on a left turn heavy course. Less than 12 miles on the tire(12-0.8mi laps). Their date code is 2nd week of 21.

This is why I have both brands as well. I just need to find what they want and see which ones to take to nats. My Falkens ran great until my codriver killed them in a 75MPH sideways slide to a stop - all 4 tires flat spotted and both fronts corded. Super nice wear and excellent grip right up until that moment :(
