Default question about rubbing issues

My front rubs when turning slowly or when going onto a driveway and my rear rubs when i hit bumps and dips.

Would you guys recommend rolling the front fender and ajusting the rear camber when rubbing or should I just change my suspension to sport springs instead of race?

TIA

well i know if i adjust the rear camber it'll unevenly wear the tires which is something i don't really wanna do but if it helps in the rubbing issue then i'll consider it.

thanks for the props.

i would recommend that as a start. check the liner when you take the wheel off and look to see what area it is rubbing against

I have a B6 4 door and you cant rool the fenders in it because there is no lip to rool.
I am not sure if yours is the same.
Try to cut or take out fender liner.
