Depending on how wide your fenders are, you may or may not rub. It also depends on suspension compression when the wheels have any sort of steering input in them as well. Just cause it doesn't rub while the wheels are straight under full compression doesnt mean it wont rub when they are turned.

-2 camber really isn't that much for a setup like that.

Just find a round curb and drive up so only one front wheel is on it. Turn the wheel lock to lock and repeat on the other side. If you don't rub on the street you'll probably be fine.

I think you will. Tony ran the same fenders and wheels/tires in Florida and he smashed the fenders.

Probably will rub. Do you have bump stops on the struts.
