Question Koni Sport Kit or just the shocks???

I just bought some new wheels and tires (Kazera KZ-A with 205/45HR17 Kumho's) and I don't want the rear tires to rub like my old ones do on occasion. I currently have Goldline springs only.

Here's my question: should I buy the complete kit or just the new shocks and hope they fix the problems by themselves??

Here are pictures of my car now:

This is the front with a 2 finger gap:


and here's the back with no gap at all between the tire and body:

2 fingers in the front and none in the back either means blown shocks or huge *** stereo. either way, something isnt right. Should be equal, or slightly less, but not an inch less. Anyways, I'm a huge fan of Konis, if you already have springs, then I'd say just add the shocks, but if you dont feel like hacking up stockers, then get the kit.
