It doesn't rub going straight, I believe the tire is touching during hard cornering with the wheel slightly turned. Even then, you never hear anything. With the spec rs and dinan camber plates the top of my tire sits flush with the fender. I think just because of the default position of the tire, with a slight turn, the tire grazes the front section of the fender. This is with sumitomo htrIII's. I'll have to take a picture when I install the new suspension.

Lower offset and he'll hit his fender more.

The clearance is good on both sides and my fender is completely rolled flush. With my wheel pointing straight, it looks like I have a lot of clearance to the fender and I never hear the tire rub. You know, when the tire rubs, even if it is the most minor rub, you hear it loud and clear. Right now, I never hear it rub. It's like the little nubs that stick off of a brand new tire are barely touching the fender. Even though I don't hear it, I still want to see if I can avoid it from happening so I don't have to keep cover up the exposed metal with primer.
I am hoping with the tc plates that I can increase the amount of caster I have currently at 2.5 degrees camber, which will increase my camber when the wheel is turned to give me additional clearance and most importantly, improve handling.

Depending on what height he sets with the TCK SA he is also going to be dangerously close to the height adjustment collars with that offset and tire height. My 245/35-18 on 8.5 ET45 was like 2 credit card widths from touching the collars with the shoulders. ET40 now with a 5mm spacer and it is still a little close for comfort.

This is ET40 with a 245/35-18... if the tire were any taller it would risk hitting the collars. I am actually going to go to ET35 since I have the fender room to spare.

I was under the impression that the usable range was ~.5-1.5". ~1" is where I'm at now, Though I want to raise it up a little in front.
