Enkei RPF1 troubles

Hey guys,

I was hoping some of you more experienced fitment gurus might be able to chime in and help me out.

I have purchased a set of Enkei RPF1 for my e92 335 M sport.

Specs are as follows:

19x8.5 +35 Fronts
19x10 +25 Rears

Tyres:
Michelin PSS 235/35/19 Front
Michelin PSS 265/30/19 Rear

My current issue is the rear tyres scrub on nearly every small bump I hit. I have the M sport suspension which i believe is fairly low to begin with. I have had the rear guards rolled lightly, with a minimal amount of flair and believe there is perhaps a bit more clearance to be gained with a more agressive roll and pull. I also currently believe my rear camber is sitting at about -1.3 degrees. Having had a bit of a look, it looks like my tyre is hitting the join where the bumper meets the quarter panel, but not on the internal bumper tab (which is commonly ground back), it seems as if it is actually scrubbing on the lip of the quarter/bumper join.

A few options i was potentially thinking of:
-raise the rear (rubber spacer pehaps?)
-dial in more camber (at the cost of tyre wear)
-more agressive roll and pull

Any help would be much appreciated.

If you know someone that knows how to roll fenders well, that's where I'd start.

If not you can dial in more camber with minimal wear if you keep your toe at 0.
