Default Camber Fix Rubbing?

I am running 215/45/16 615 azenis with about a full finger gap on my back tires.... my rear camber is zero'd out but was thinking about pulling it in about a half degree and also gonna roll the fenders sunday before expo.

any experience here, the fenders rub like crazy and i'm curious if the camber mixed with the roll will 100% solve my prob?

more negative camber will help reducing the chance of rubbing outside fender at the back

specially if you run low offset wheel

More camber in the rear will help with your rubbing issues. Coupled with rolling the rear fenders, it should solve your problems.

do the -.5d camber adjustment on both sides first, then test it out before you roll
