suspension and wheel question

did something crazy today with my wheels

I used to own a chrysler crossfire some years back and i still had the wheels left from it so i looked up the bolt pattern and such and turns out they fit








problem is they rub when i hit a bump primarily on the passenger side . I'm not a suspension kind of guy so im asking is there a economical way to raise the back end up a tad so they dont rub? I like the look id like to keep it

The rear of the car can be adjusted but buying thicker spring pads. There are 4 different thicknesses of rear spring pads. 1 being the thinnest and 4 the thickest. You can tell which one you have by removing the spring and you'll see little nipples that'll indicate which one you have by the number of nipples. The pads cost around 20 or so. There's a thread with the part number.
