Default Rear camber

I need some camber in the rear to solve my wheel rub problem but I don't want to get the OTG kit because it cambers too much. Anything out there that I can get for the xB to camber a little in the rear? If not I think I'm gonna have to sell my OTG shims for some 5mm spacers.

What the specs on your wheels, what type of suspension are you running, and what tire size are you running? This can help alot in finding the issue in your rubbing. Have you rolled the fenders?

I'm running 15x7 and 205/55/15 all around. I have grinded every bit of my fender lip but it's still rubbing a bit when going over dips. I just need a bit of camber maybe 1degree or so will do.

I have Hotchkis lowering spring with stock shocks but my Konis are on the way. I'm not sure if Konis will fix my rubber.

The Koni;s might fix the problem cause you can make them stiffer. With a 15 x 7, you could have ran stock tires and not have any issues in rubbing.

I could have ran 195 tires but I want to run 205. I think I may get away with rubbing with 205/50/15.

Yeah I think you might be right on that.
