One of my next planned upgrades is a nice set of coilovers. Looking for something streetable as my car will hardly be on the track. I'm currently running a pair of 18x10 et 22 Enkei's wrapped in 295/35 Michelins on stock suspension. My concern is, I may rub a little on the fenders due to the lowered ride height. I just had my fenders rolled due to slight rubbing when I hit a dip/bump at freeway speeds. Does anyone have experience with a similar rear tire and wheel setup as mine with a set of coilovers? I'm trying to figure out if I will have to do any modifications just to get a coilover setup to work. Also, I just had my alignment done and the shop moved my rear camber to a slightly more positive setting.

You would probably be fine with stock camber or more negative camber than stock. It's hard to say though if your current configuration woulf work since we don't know how much positive camber was added when you had your alignment done.
currently on 19x11 +20 295 30
rear lowered to 25.5 inch fender to ground.
rear camber -2.5 no rubbing.
I did rub at -1.8 camber and 26.5 rear fender to ground clearance so camber plays a big part. my fenders are rolled
