I just installed a wavetrac lsd in mine, I was a victim of overcooking the vlsd too many times. I have my ride height set at 26.75" floor to fender arch. Running square 285s re71s on 19x10.5 konigs, I had to roll front fenders for clearance/rubbing issues and I run a 15mm spacer in the rear.
What camber to you guys recommend, currently at about 3.3 degrees front and 2 degrees rear?

What offset are the wheels? I'm running Konig Dekagrams of that size and tire combination which are +23 and no spacers currently on stock suspension and alignment and I have very minimal rubbing. That might change once I get the coilovers installed. I was planning on running similar camber that you have.

You need to get a pyrometer and measure the temperature across the tread as the correct amount of camber will depend on numerous factors. If you continuously see higher temperature on the outside of the tire, you probably need more camber. I would start at -3.0 and go from there.
