I think you'll need more neg camber at the top mount to avoid that rub. Or higher offset wheels.I wanted to quickly chime in here. Currently running the following setup:
- TTS LCA
- Mavotech Lower Ball Joints
- KW V3
- Stock Top Mount with Eurosport Street Camber Insert
After alignment, I was able to pull the following specs:

The car handles phenomenal. Tire wear at the track is superb with a few caveats:
- Return to Centre is quite strong (likely due to Caster)
- With my Apex 17x9 +43, the tire has chewed up where the bumper / fender meets.
- I’d want to drop down to around -2.8 to -3 degrees of camber front, with a bit of correction on the caster. Ideally want the wheel more tucked in so I can repurchase similar spec fenders without having to to wider as 245 section is more than adequate and the option for this is to run less camber from the bottom and more from the top. Would this be a knuckle + camber plate solution?
Any tips / advice?

I run 245/40r15 Falken rt660 on 15x8 et40. With arms fully extended and camber plates set to zero, I would likely rub if my tire diameter and ride height didn't give me relief. With camber plates fully adjusted. my tires look tucked enough where a higher diameter would likely work....but my camber is more than -4.5.
