[DeTomaso] Campy front 8" wheels

Does the car have camber locks? I had a front wheel rub when the camber lock
came loose and the adjustment shifted. That wheel had visibly more negative
camber than the other three. I just used the jacking screw to move it back
out and I was able to drive it to the alignment shop.

I've heard back from a few people that report there are other cases of 8"
wheels rubbing the front A-arm.

I checked Mark M.'s car, he is running "spacers" aghast!

I don't mind cutting the offending part of the A-arm (a little), but there
must be a better solution.

Anyone ?

The car was last alignment checked, with 17" X 9" Campy clones.  How much
(in degrees or inches) would going back to 15"X8" wheels change this?
