pistro your **** looks sick with the 235s now that it fills in the fender but it sucks that its rubbing. maybe another half degree of camber and put your stiffer springs on the rear already and set your dampening to full stiff.

Yeah already put the stiffer springs on on and it's at full stiff... I noticed a pretty good difference, but I still need to take it to work cos there's a few dips that I can test out, but it's goin up driveways that really causes most of the scraping. I was thinkin half a degree but then I think the front of the wheel would hit the fender..i'm still thinkin maybe 1 degree would be cool. Too lazy to think about doin the math right now lol

im sure half a degree in the rear would be fine as long as you ride on full stiff i ride full stiff and havent rubbed in the rear once only rubbing in the front on turns with inclines but thats a given. might be running a 3mm spacers all around also.

Is it rubbing on the side marker bracket? If so, I had part of mine cut off and it minimized the rubbing alot. Or if it's the fender covers, well, I just removed mine lol...but only cos they're really tore up.

Did some math...these are only approximations based on my front...If I camber .75 degrees, I get about 5mm clearance. That should be enough. I think 1.5 would be too much, I'd need a spacer, and I'd rather not run a spacer..would be a 3mm or 5mm one any way.

my friend, we don't buy wheels that we CAN'T fit tires around, we stretch the tires to fit the wheel in, its not that we CAN'T fit a tire on it, and please it's one thing to disagree but another to mock
