Also, are your guards rolled?
As far as I know, you cannot dial negative camber on the front without aftermarket camber plate. camber plate are roughly $300.

My car is lowered on coilovers, quite low in the front actually. My guards are not rolled, and won't rub even with 4 people in car.
M3 LCA will add camber.
I've had the inner kip of guards tucked on other cars, I avoid pulling the guards due to resale.
VMR are very heavy wheels, I wouldn't run them. IIRC apex wheels are 70% of the weight for similar design and size.

I want to see 18x9+40 all round, not a fan of staggered fitment.
