When I lowered mine right down on cav slabs it gave me negative camber and the wheel was touching the shocker once I fitted camber shims it sorted it out but still pritty close to it

If they are et45 offset and they are rubbing something aint right. Have your coilovers got an elongated hole to adjust the camber? My cheap fk ones have so i had camber set at -1degree and then got the tracking sorted and mines fine.
