Treadwear looks otherwise normal, I think the sidewall just didn't hold up on a recent corner. Do any of the suspension/camber changes help prevent this, or do you simply need lower-profile tires?

Some roll-over is to be expected. Check if your tires have a little triangle marker on the top of the sidewall, that is the limit of where you want the scuffing to go to.
Increasing the sway bar stiffness reduces the lateral weight transfer which will help. Increased spring will reduce the weight transfer in all directions (lateral and longitudinal). The goal with camber is to dial it in to match the other suspension components and driving style so that the tire contact patch is as flat as possible during high load cornering.
