    Front camber question

    Greetings all,

    So I just put new Yokohama Neova AD08 R tires on my 88 Carrera. The fronts are the standard size 205/55/16 on the standard offset 16x7 wheel. Car is roughly at euro ride height. They are rubbing the fender lips when hitting dips or bumps. Before I get into fender rolling I was wondering if anybody had any ideas on how much camber it would take to get them to clear the fenders without rolling. I realize every car is different...hoping somebody here had success using only alignment.

    What's your current camber setting? I'd suggest max of 2 degrees neg. for a street car. If you're at zero now, 2 neg. might work.

    Hmmm...don't know the current setting but I doubt it's at neg 2.
