My Rt3 was the same as yours with 1/2" lower clearance over the driver side rear tire. My tires are the taller 295s. So I just finished adjusting it. Needed to upgrade the shocks which are taller and will allow you to crank down the spanner nut on top of the spring. There are several steps but is an easy fix. Frame is still level in back and wheel clearance over the tire is equal now. Custom Cars should have done that but didn't. If the tall tires hits the body it runs risk of cracking paint. Ideally you want at least 2 finger clearance over the tire and body.
