Default Advice on how to fix rubbing

Going to try re-posting this in the correct topic area to hopefully gain more traction...

I just installed Swift springs and some aftermarket wheels. No other suspension mods. I do not want coilovers and I only do commuting and spirited driving with my Z. The front came out perfect. The rear has some negative camber and was tucked in slightly. I added one inch adapter to both sides on the rear and now it is flush to my liking.

Apart from the negative camber in the rear that I want to fix, my rear wheels rub against the wheel well and fender trim on bumps. How can I fix this? As for the rubbing, I was thinking about trimming the inner portion of the fender trim. However, if that doesn't work then I just trimmed it for no reason. My other thought was adding the adjustable koni yellows. Obviously this is more $, but I want to fix the problem correctly. I figured I could raise the back up slightly since they are adjustable.

Will an alignment, some toe bolts, and trimming fix these issues or will the Konis fix everything? Do I need other suspension hardware? Any input or experience is appreciated.
