Camber or bust

Bought wheels for my car and they don't clear my Z32 brakes, do you think I can get enough camber to fit them under the stock fenders? (Stock arms/tien coils) Or should I find oem brakes to make them clear, looking for some recommendations/references. Won't let me upload photos but I'd really appreciate some help, you can find them on my IG: tjs_mx5 They stick out approx 14mm past fender

1. You should probably post pics, specs, and more information

2. What's your current alignment?

3. What size tire are you trying to run?

3.5 Camber and brake clearance are unrelated

1: no amount of camber will change the brake clearance. you need to either:
1a: add spacers to get the wheel to clear the brakes
1b: get brakes that clear the wheels
1c: get wheels that clear your brakes

2: we have no fucking idea what wheels you bought, or what size they are, or what suspension/alignment you have, or if you've rolled and pulled your fenders, or even what car you have

3: please search before making threads to cover topics we've already discussed and answered thoroughly for the last 20 years or so.

Your brakes are attached to your knuckles which your wheel attaches to. Camber isn't going to change clearance to your brake calipers. A wheel spacer might help, but it sounds like you bought the wrong offset/size of wheel.
