AE86 - Roll Center Adjusters with 30 mm track increase

Hi guys
AE86 / KE70 / similar cars
I would like to ask those who have installed RCA with track increase, or some times known as built-in negative camber about matching it with the rear.
Well, my car had ideal front track and rear track. Nearly 100% same. Since the upgrade to 195/50R15 from the 175/70R13 there was no desire to increase the track.
However, recently I just acquired a "proper" RCA and it had built-in negative camber by means of shifting the strut position outwards by a certain amount. In this case 30 mm.
The replacement of this new RCA over the old one gave quieter ride, firmer feel and control, overall safer and more confident. All good ............... but ............. the track increased so much that the tyres are scratching the fender tops, inner guards right on the foot etc.
Whacking them fenders solved the problems, but the rear track is so much smaller that the car tends to oversteer and it doesn't look nice at all having the front so much wider than the rear.
For those who is using RCA with 30mm or 40mm track increase, what do you do / did to solve the oversteering problem as well as looks?
many thanks in advance.
