Where are your tires hitting the fender? What size wheels/offset? What size tires? More positive camber may cause them to hit more often if you do not raise the ride height. Caster will not solve this problem for you.

thanks for the reply mate.
tyres are tucked in at the moment. when i make a full turn on a flat surface im ok, but when i make a turn, say to the left and the road is angled to the left as well (same goes for the right side, turning right and road angled to the right) the the top of the tyre hits the top arch of the fender. im running 20x8.5 ET35 with 5mm spacers with 235/30/20 tyres.
I dont have any problem drivin staright or even making a full turn as long as the road is even but a slight angle/lean towards where im turning, thats where the problem begins.
I think youre right, I may have to raise the front a bit. I dont really understand what the caster allignment is for i just know it has something to do with steering so i thought it would help.
