Thats my car. Without rear fender rolled, the tires rubbed a lot even with Swift gsr springs.

I now have Megan coilovers and -1.5 camber. The ride height I set is a bit lower than the Swifts. The rear fenders rubbed again and the fenders are rolled to the max.

Point is, Dunlop Z1 tires are really wide for the size.

I'm currently running 265/35/18 RT615 on 18x9 +35 wheels on Swift Spec R springs with no rubbing. I never rolled my fenders.
