Update...
So I finally got the SPC Camber arms to correct my inner tire wear...
so far, I don’t think I have rubbed my wheel against the fender. Hit plenty of dips and rough roads on my ride to work this morning.
Rear camber are set to -1.4 on each side. Which is way better than the -2.5 I had.
Weird thing is, it looks like my right rear wheel sticks out a little further than my left rear. Not by a lot but I notice it. Maybe the camber is slightly off from the numbers shown? Not sure but at least it hasn’t rubbed yet... at least to my knowledge.

No... it does make sense. The original post was about me getting extreme inner tire wear due to the -2.5 camber.
I made this post to ask if others got their camber corrected, and if they started having rubbing issues.
So far, now that the wheel is more straight, I am fine.I might have issues if the car is full with people, but most of the time it's just me driving anyway.

but Camber is not the reason for the tire wear you are seeing, it is toe that cause it. just have to wait and see if it really is helping in you case

Yeah, I'll see how it goes this time around with a brand new set of tires. Although, every time i have went to get an alignment, the toe was fine. The only issue the techs saw was my camber was negative. Everything else was in the acceptable spec range.

Sorry for the lack of updating but after getting the camber arms installed, I don't experience any wheel rub with my setup. Tires have been wearing pretty evenly.
