That is expected with a higher camber setting that the longer arm gives (increasing from stock of about 0.8 degrees to 1.5 or so with the longer LCAs), the fix is to drive the car harder and wear rubber off the outside of the tyres. You will get shorter tyre life than with the stock arms if you haven’t been prematurely wearing the outer shoulders due to spirited cornering, which is one of the key reasons you would put on the longer arms to begin with.
My Caterham runs 2.7 degrees of front camber which leads to noticeable inner shoulder wear if I drive a few thousand kilometres on the highway without a lot of hard cornering, but a couple of track days evens it out again.
