Sometimes when turning into a dip or driveway apron I get tire rub on the wheel wells (more often with a passenger).Here is what I have:

1974 3.0CS
CK staggered 16" wheels
205/55/16 tires on the front
rolled fenders
Bilstein shocks
B & G progressive springs
spacers removed
Camber- Front Left -0.7 degrees, Front Right -1.1 degrees
Belt line to ground distance 27.5" at wheel

Should I consider the La Jolla fixed camber plates? It will give me a little more height and more negative camber. Don't know if a quarter inch or so of extra height will help enough or the effects of the additional negative camber on top of what I already have (ride and tire wear). Will this solve my problem?

Other suggestions?

Thanks in advance...BOB
 
The camber plates will give you too much negative camber given you are already negative. I just turn slower into driveways, works for me Bob! Our coupes aren't square after all these years either.
