Default raise rearend possible?

hey you guys, I have the full ford racing handling package on my mustang. however, I need to fit my 305/35 r20 nitto 555r drag radials on my stang. The car sits too low as is in the rear and rubs the tires and fenders together (rubbin some paint off!) what can i do to raise the rear end a bit, i dont care if its new springs or not just as long as i can fit these badass tires on before the strip opens up again. thanks you guys!

I don't know how low your springs are now, but roush rear springs may raise it enough.

yeah springs are your best bet. for a cheap fix you could block you current springs. it involves jacking up the car and sticking blocks inbetween some spings to take them out of the equasion
