Narrow body wheel problem

Fellow Pelicanites... I've got a '76 911 narrow body with 6x16 Fuchs in front, and 7x16 Fuchs in the rear. Love the staggered look and performance, however, rear tires hit the wheel well. Any suggestions...add-on flares (maybe?), replace with 6x16 (I'd rather not, but...) ... HELP!

tire size? how much negative camber? any spacer? 225 and -1.5 deg. should clear, of course this may depend on if your car was hit or what exact brand of tire you have
