Default Suspension shims

Fitted my R&B shims this week. Just want to make sure I fitted them correctly.

I cut each shim in half and put each half between the bearing housing and the back plate, held in by the two bolts nearest to the rear bumper. ie on looking at the bearing housing there are 4 bolts. One half of the shim threaded onto the top rear bolt and the other half on the bottom rear bolt?

I'm sure i've done it right but just wanted to make sure.

I can't see how this will stop the scrubbing of the inner edge of the rear tyres though. The camber angle is still the same so won't the tyre still be running more on this inner edge?

Cheers.
