There's a chance you can have the rubbing fixed, but I'm not sure if you can do it with the limited adjustability of the stock "camber kit." You may have to raise the car a little.

On our cars, camber can be adjusted as the car is delivered from the factory. You cannot do this yourself without a lot of expensive equipment. Go to a shop in your area with S2000 experience.
Negative camber raises the limits of adhesion in dry cornering by presetting the wheels in such a way that anticipates the cornering load factors. When you corner, weight shifts to the outside tires, changing the contact patch footprint. Essentially, the harder you corner, the more you unload the inside edge of your tire and the more you load the outside edge. The increased negative camber angles the wheel so the outside edge is not in contact with the road to the same extent as the inside edge. As you corner hard, weight shifts to the outside edge. The negative camber allows greater transfer before you reach the tires limit.

so let me see if i understand correctly........negagtive camber would imply that the wheels are slightly angled in towards the car at the top....so at a stand still the tires would have more contact on the insides and when cornering the weight is shifted to the outside.........yes/no?
