Have fun repairing your quarters when you hit a good dip/imperfection in the road.

Full dampening on 18k rears wouldn't even save those fenders...

All I need is a credit card width of fender clearance with the tires and It will be perfect. That's how my previous setup was and my fenders were never damaged.

You're going to need more than a little pull. You'll need. 15-20mm pull which will more than likely result in the fenders dimpling on the spot welds.

You need credit card clearance to clear the tire, which is the least of your worries right now. What you need to clear is the wheel at full compression which is not going to happen without adding more negative camber. The lip of the wheel hitting the fender head on is going to warp/dent the quarter panel and chip the paint.

I have less than credit card clearance on my wheels, the same way I setup Marcus' car

If you want to do it right and make it look good (not destroying your fenders) spend $180 and get an SPC rear camber/toe kit
