Default Rushforths are here!!!

Got them on the car and they look great but really show now that the the car needs to be lowered bad. I was hoping to do CPP big 4 wheel disc brake set up but now I think I need to work on the suspension first.

My biggest problem is I am rubbing bad. My rear end isn't square so I thought I would have to massage the wheel lip on the drivers side but I am rubbing on the passenger side inside and out. This is the side that has me puzzled. Why is it rubbing on the outside when I now have more room then when the 9.5 TTII's were on it. I guess since this wheel and tire combo (295/40/20 is much taller then the old set up that it is putting the sidewall bulge right on the quarter lip and because I need to shore up the rear end wiggle it's touching because of too much side to side travel. Does this sound reasonable?

Since I need to do some work on the rear what to you think of the CPP rear end setup with all 4 trailing arms and sway bay with brand new bushings? And maybe some QA-1 shocks with lowering springs? In the mean time we are going to trim the lips some more. here is a link. It's the top one on left.
