Default NEED HELP wheels and tires fitment

Hi all,
I recently got some 18x9 +35 wheels with 255/35/18 tires all around. I have my fender rolled in the rear and pulled in front.My front camber is about -2.9 and rear is -3.9.
The wheels are still rubbing my fender everytime they compress. What can i do to make the rubbing go away? I really need to get it fix asap.

Did you relocate the rear tab? What is your toe set at? Also are you rubbing front or rear you didn't say.

Rears is due to the tab not being relocated and the bumper not being trimmed. What are you lowered on? Fronts should only be rubbing when it is compressed and the wheel is turned or does it rub when you hit a bump?

The rear tab and bumper is where it rubs first which is why it is required. It's the easiest option for sure other include widebody, buy different wheels etc but I figured you wanted to easier fix not the ones that are much more difficult.

The front is an odd one as you said it is already pulled. Raising the car some would help the issue. You can also adjust the stiffness of your coilovers up some to help. I suspect the rubbing you are hearing is mostly the rear. Raising the car will probably be the best way for the fronts to not rub as well as stiffening it up again.

im pretty sure most of the rubs are from driver side rear, the dirver side rear and front are rubbing only on bigger bumps and my rear and i think they relo my tab when they roll my rear fender. im not sure where the wheels are rubbing rn. i will tryna do everything i can to get it fix bc it is my daily...
