If they are rubbing then something isn't right...either the wheels or tires are to wide or your rear springs are shot. Air shocks or helper springs are just a band aid.

What part of the tire is rubbing? I've got 255/70/15 on my coronet and they don't rub.. I did put air shocks on just to raise it up a little, maybe 1 inch. But even before I put the shocks on they didn't rub. Check your wheel backspacing.

My 67 GTS has pretty tight wheel wells, but accommodates Vintiques 15 inch Magnum 500's with 235/60 tires just fine. I bought it with 8 inch Torquethrust wheels with the same tires and they barely rubbed the inside edge of the wheel opening. Both had backspace of 4-4 1/2 inches. You have to have a strange offset to have rubbing at the wheel opening and even more bizarre issues if you have rubbing against the wheel house with that size tire.
