The shocks you refer to are designed with a coil rest, so that they can provide the lift you describe.

They are not the most inexpensive solution though.

If you are ok with the stance, but want to get the body off of the tires more, that's EXACTLY what a Body Lift is for....it also makes room for LARGER tires.

A simple spacer lift is also an option, and can be combined with the BL with no problems, and in any order.

Your next mod will need to be a set of balls though.
