Fender rolling... Will it help my situation?

:
03 MSP Blazing Yellow Mica
I've had my 03.5 MSP for a few weeks now and finally tried to haul more than just 1 passenger in it. Problem is that if I have anyone in the back seat and I'm driving and accelerate too hard the tires rub in the back. I like the wheels that came with the car. I know they are 18" Falken torque 5's on 225/40/18 rubber. (I don't have a clue what offset they are) I've never had to roll a set of wheel wells on a car before and don't want to screw it up "IF" it'll even help my situation out. Here's some pics of what I've got going on:

From the first pic it looks like you are even with the fender so you'll need negative camber + pulled/rolled rear fenders.
How much room you have between rim/tire and strut and rear trailer arms ?
If you have about an inch or more then you better of getting higher offset wheels which will relocate the wheel more inside the well or downgrade to a smaller width tire say 205x40x18 , this way it will stretch a bit and concave and reduce the fender rubber contact.
 
After a fender roll and camber bolts how bad you guys think the tire wear is gonna be? I gotta take it on a 4k mile trip in a few weeks.
 
As long as you get an alignment and your toe is good, your tire wear will not be bad at all.
