Exclamation 275/35/18 Tires in front with KW Sleeve Over Kit - PLEASE HELP

My car is at the dealership now and we are having issues getting this setup working. I usually run 15mm spacers - without them on the wheel the wheel rubs the spring. With the spacer on or 12mm spacers on the wheel looks like it would hit the arch and the wheels rub the plastic in the wheel wells.

I have a sleeve over kit on he car and my car has EDC. I am thinking it might be too low as I also noticed it looks like the wheel has been hitting the top plastic of the wheel arch.

I see tons of people saying they are running this wheel setup but we cannot figure out how to make this work.

Running enough negative camber allows the wheels to not hit the arches but it still rubs.

How low are you? Slammed? May have to pull the fenders a little and remove/alter the fender liner if too low. I'm sure someone will chime in with better advice.

It is lowered for the track. I wouldn't consider it slammed. Can't measure as it is in the shop

Sounds like it needs to be raised up. 275 is a wide tire for the front and when I was running it I had to have camber and ride height dialed perfect to avoid rubbing.
