Default Eliminating Rubbing Issues on 2IS in front

currently running +22 8.5 in the front with 215/35/19 tires. car is dropped on tein coils. im expereiencing front rubbing on dips, very minimal when turning. is there anyway to remove the problem besides raising the car back up? i love the way it looks but hate for it to keep chewing up my fender well, and the sound as well. please advise. seems like a lot of people have the same problem but havent found anyone with a solution. it seems to be close to the part where the bumper and the fender meets.

at the top of the fender, the front, or the rear...

you might get a little better by running a little more negative camber, depending on where it rubs...

the other option is a wheel with less offset or a shorter tire - the tires you have are .3 inches taller than factory...
