Bad luck reaper, you'd probably still not square it up with the spacers and you'd have at least 4inch lift at the back and about the same at the front so you'd need caster corrected radius arms or the steering'l be all over the place. I'd the same effect as you have now when I went to the tyre fitters with 30/950s on the back and standard 205s on the front!

You could lower the back by getting the front standard coils and putting them in the back. This give's about 65-75mm of lift...
