Hi Rob

Are you running 18" on your classic?

If yes,do you have rolled arches front and rear,if not,this can be your problem

Rising ride height will help,but will not solve this...

About the camber,this can be addressed on on the wheel alignment,all depends for what can be used and from this I would go with camber setup.

If its fast road setup,there should be addressed more camber like at front or rear.I would say yes you will need camber bolts,not sure if rear BC have camber plates

Sorry,We are not going to Prodrive,our car is now at garage for more upgrades(2.35L and GT30r/GT35r) plus other bits,its shame,really we are looked forward on this

Have good day there and enjoy

When you change the suspension setup you need to have a geometry setup redone anyway, so take it to someone that knows what they are doing and ask them to do the new setup for you!

I have 225/40/18's and there is 20mm gap from the rolled lip to top edge of tire's. I had 215/35/18's and they were fine no issues, had enough adjustment with the camber bolts.

I cant remember how much camber its set at on rear but there is enough clearance on mine

I bought the camber bolts from scoobyparts

Yes rear camber bolts will help in more camber,not sure if adjustable rear top mounts will be better solution,but they're cost £140 if you comparing them to camber bolts,which cost £20-£30

Speak to Arch Enemy about the rolling arches,they're covering whole UK and I'm sure they can come to your place
