Tire wear after 6 Track days and ~5k miles

Worst of all, Driver Front:


To me it shows obvious over inflation.... Most likely from Big Willow at 100 degree heat...
I've done Big Willow 3 times on these tires, Streets of Willow twice on these tires (Once CW other time CCW). And also once at Button Willow CW.
Passenger side Front



Passenger side Front again:


Then the rears




Rears don't seem too bad

Alignment is -1.6 R -1.1 F. Toe I don't recall.
These are the stock CS3s.


I have RS3s in my storage waiting to be mounted...I Just need to get wheels first........

I wonder if I can run these tires on the track at least 1 more time....
Street they're fine (I drive speed limit on the street, more or less. Don't corner hard. Won't be raining here for a while. I also take the Z4 out more than the M3 so it sits more than it's driven excluding to and from a couple places)

I'm thinking of swapping the Driver side with the Passenger side (front) if the next track day is CW.
if it's CCW, then it's fine...I mean, not to break any lap times or anything like that, but to have fun (main reason, well actually, only reason really I go) at the track.
