wheels catching on front wheel arches



  clio 172 cup
hi I've recently uprated my suspension and put 2.5 degrees negative camber onto the front wheels and now when I corner hard on track days the front wheels catch on the front part of the inner wheel arch liner. its actually been rubbing that much its gone straight through the arch liner and is rubbing on the mounting bracket for the front bumper. has anyone got any ideas on how to stop this?

Put some spacers (washers) between the top mount bearing & the top spring cover,making sure they have an internal diameter the same as the top spring cover to prevent the damper rod from punching through said cover.
About 4mm thick if you have Gaz coilovers.This will bring the bumpstops into play before the tyre hits the arch liner.
