did you ever look into a camber kit? do you have one on there? does/will it make a difference? i've heard that camber kits help to eliminate the rub, but is that true?

Don't you mean 16x7 Rotas?

...and what kind of car do you drive.

On the 1996-up Civics the 215-45-16 Aznies will be great, but for the 1992-1995 Civic they will probably scrub like hell with even a mild drop.
