How much of rear bumper do you cut to not rub?
I have been rubbing on big dips on the back driver side bumper. It was already cut, I have -2.5 camber, fenders rolled and bumper tabs relocated.
I have Work emotions 17x9 +44 all around. 255/40 in the rear and 225/45 in the front.
The rear have less than a 1 finger gap on both sides. I am lowered on ground control coilovers. Fully stiff in the front and 1/4 turn from full stiff in the rear.
On big dips on the highway the driver side rear rubs outside edge of tire. It looks like it is hitting the rear bumper inside. It was cut quite a bit. What do people do to avoid this? Don't see how more negative camber would help that really. It's not rubbing the quarter panel.
The front is even lower and less than 0 finger gap. I flared my driver side fender slightly yesterday on the highway lol. Hit a massive bump when going 80mph or so.
So might do a flare in the front soon to avoid destroying them.
More worried about the rear right now as that rubbing is really annoying. I don't want to raise the car up more either.

Didn't think I would have to run that much neg camber. I am low in the back but not completely slammed like lots of people. Maybe I can cut the bumper almost completely from the wheel well and see how that looks. Only rubbing on the driver side for some reason. Gotta get alignment checked and then tweaked.
