The camber is stock with the addition to whatever the Hotchkis springs added (don't remember my exact number). From what I could tell, the front fenders don't need to be rolled anymore. It is actually rubbing the round screws that hold the fender liner in.

If you're looking for better track performance you might want to look into some adjustable front camber arms. I'm guessing you're only at about a degree and a half up front with those springs, maybe a bit more. I run 3 degrees negative up front and 2 in the rear. This will also allow more room for your wheel/tire setup.

FWIW, I run two "track" sets, 1) a street tire setup and 2) an R-compound track tire setup.

Street tire setup: Falken RT-615's, 275/35-18 front on 18x9" SSR GT-2 rims with +31mm offset; 315/30-18 rear on 18x10.5" +43mm SSR GT-2s. No clearance problems.

R-compound setup: Hoosier 285/30-18s all around on Rota P45R wheels, 18x9.5" +30mm. Again, no clearance issues.

Both setups work well. Less understeer with the same size Hoosiers all around (and of course, a lot more grip!).
