New rims with less back spacing.

Well, the way I see it you have 4 options:
1. New wheels with less backspacing which will put the tires farther from the control arms. Downside: cost of new wheels and you may rub on the flares during compression.
2. Wheelspacers. See "New Wheels"
3. Aftermarket lower control arms that are thinner diameter. Downside: cost.
4. Adjust steering stops. Downside: loose turning radius, but you probably will never notice.
