Raising your car has to do with your springs, or coilovers.

Camber has to do with your camber kit. Negative camber is when the wheels are kind of tilts with the top of the wheels pointing inward toward to wheel well.

Rolling your fenders is just like bending the tip of your fender so it doesnt touch the wheels.

Whatever floats your boat. I would recommend raising your ride height.

Remember, rolling fenders are pretty much permanent. You can always raise and lower your car, and you can always adjust your camber.
