Default TE37 +12 tires / camber help needed

I am running a set of TE37 in 9.5 and 10.5 +12. The rear has a 19/30/295, rolled fenders, -2 degrees of camber, and pulled a little. The rear doesn't seem to rub. The front has a 255/35/19 that does rub. What camber / tire setup are people running with similar setups to keep it from rubbing. I'd like to not stretch the hell out of the front if possible. The car is dropped about an inch maybe a little more.

Run a 245/35 or a /30/ tire w/ a slight fender pull...

Think arms + a little more camber as an option as well?

Yup..get some cusco's or spc's for the value..-2. + in the front will start to wear
the tires pretty unevenly...but it'll fit + handle a little better.

They are black TE's on a black car. I will get pics once everything is as I want it to look.

Thanks for the help. I order A arms.

I don't drive the car a lot as it is a weekend warrior at best. Camber up front shouldn't be an issue around 2- 2.5

Here is picture with my old Yoko ES100's 245/35/19 before I put the 5mm spacers in the front, so it was a +22 then, but you get the idea. With the Invo's and spacers, it fill's out much better... I'll try to get more recent pics.

Jason, lower the car a little more, and run some more negative camber. -2.5 should do it...but even -3.0 if you can. That will eliminate any rubbing.

Lemme know if you still need arms....we have been using the SPC's lately, but I run the Cusco on my race car.

Ive got 9.5 +12 with another 3mm spacer (so +9) with 265/30/19s up front, camber is about -3 degrees and Im really low. I rarely rub my passenger side inner fender liner (with a passenger), on larger dips... never the drivers side. My passenger side sits just a tiny bit lower especially with a passenger in the car too.

Gonna start at 2.2 and see where it goes. The only problem is getting the savages at the local tire alignment shop to not destroy my wheels...
