camber advice

Hey everyone. I wanted to get some advice from some of you that have already lowered your car. I am wanting to go a little lower with my coil overs to be tucking the tires since I'm not really looking into a lip kit or a body kit. I wanted to know what kind of camber you guys are running to tuck the tires without rubbing. I'm not going for a stupid low look or that whole so low i'm scraping deal. Just want to tuck the tires in some. Thanks for your help!

Here is some more info: 245 40 18s all around on nt05s.
- camber bolts to adjust for 1.25 degrees up front
- cusco rear arms in the rear that are adjustable
- kw v3 coilovers (car is currently at the KW factory spec drop which is somewhat flush)
- wheels are 18 8.5 f and 18 9.5 rear with 38 off on nitto nt05s 245 40 18 all around.

any input would be great. thanks! sorry if this is a ridiculous question.
