Control arm Question to fix Rubbing 20x9.5 +35 255/35/20
I'm looking to fix my rubbing issue so I want to put a little more negative camber on my back wheels until they will clear the wheel wells. Right now they are at about -2.5 and the side of the back tires rubs on the wheel wells when the suspension flexes. But it seems they only need to be put a tiny bit more on an angle to clear.
Can I do it with just the one arm here ? https://www.heeltoeauto.com/spc-adju...ua9-67545.html
Or should I go for the 3 piece set? https://www.heeltoeauto.com/spc-adju...ua9-67540.html
Two of the single arms is about 200 usd while two 3 piece sets is about 400 usd so im wondering if I can get away with just the one arm.
Any thoughts?

The fenders are not rolled. I know rolling them would likely fix the rubbing or at least help but I cant find anywhere around here to roll them and I don't want to roll them myself.
So thats why I am thinking of adding more negative camber.

I would recommend that you spend the time and get the fenders rolled. Excessive negative Camber will kill your tires quickly and that could get costly over time.
I figure the more camber idea would be fine since;
1. they really only need a little bit more of an angle to clear
2. I didn't pay much for these rims/tires so buying more tires in the future isn't a big deal
3. This car doesn't go far, ive owned it since feb 2017 and ive barely put 8,000km on it including a 1200km trip to Ottawa and back.
So im not too worried about the tires wearing out faster.
