Need help...

hey, i was drivin in the city today and i was on the road that was rated the worst in my county. My problem is, when i was driving on the bumps my tires stick out on the side so it rubbed on the wheel well and scrached it really bad. My tires all chewed up on the side and chunks are missing. my back tires are 265/50/15 on some old school charger rims and they do stick out from the side. how do i fix the problem? could i put new shocks on or would i need more. Im going to need new tires soon and i want to fix the suspension prob first before the same thing happenes to new tires. thanks...

Get rims with the proper backspacing.

is there anyother way to stop this from happening without new rims because i like the rims that are on the car and i like how the tires stick out. Would a stiffer suspension work?
