Overhangs curling upwards
If curling happens in places that have no bed contact: Too much cooling.
Try reducing cooling to 50% Raise nozzle temp to 200C Lower board temp to 50C
Last but not least: in Cura, there is a “Z Seam Alignment” option that I now use, and would suggest anyone to set on “random” (it isn't by default)
