Default Alignment/Tire wear/Rubbing - Help Please

just got an alignment today and was wondering if you guys had opinions on the following:

current camber is as follows: FL -1.0 FR -.08 & RL -2.2 RF -2.0

and i am rubbing just a bit.

will going a bit more negative on the camber solve the rubbing issues? and how much will this be a detriment to or create excessive tire wear for me.

am on PSS9s - lowered about .75 inch
other specs are - Front 18x8 +50 with 225/40 & Rear 18x9.5 +55 with 265/35


thanks for your comments....

its the 265/35 your running...get the fenders rolled. leave your alignment specs alone.

if you dial in more camber you might clear the 265's. as for tire wear, toe causes more wear than camber.

did you relocate the bumper bap on the rear bumper and shave your fenders. Im running 18x10.5+39 with -2.9 camber and almost slamme on tein flex with little to no rub only when I run over something really big. With those specs you should be able to pull it off easily.
