Default suspension question about my 2002 ss

on my cam only 02ss im running a eibach prokit with stock shocks im thinking about swapping my stock 10 spoke ss wheels for zr1s 17.11 out back with a 315.35 tire if possible question is i like the ride height of the front how can i go about getting the back up without having the tire rub?can i leave the springs and just go with a shock to raise it or put the stock springs in the back with a differnt shock?

If you get a "big" 315 tire... not a sumitomo or nitto... you wont be able to lower the rear without beating the **** out of the inner well and rolling the lip.

I run stock springs with QA1's all around, the rear ride hieght didnt change.
