If you installed 2" TJ coil spacers front and rear, I hope you at least flipped the upper front strut mount. Longer rear shocks would give you more rear droop, too. As for how much actual lift you now have, you have closer to 3" up front from just the spacers. In the rear you have 2" actual though.

If you went with a skinny 34", like a 9.50 or 10.50 and had just the right backspacing, like say around 3", you could probably get them on with some trimming and floor board massage with a big hammer... Then again, every Tracker/sidekick I have worked on seems to be different as far as what fits and what hits.

As for the tires leaning out, you probably back into the spot at work and pull into the driveway. The coil spacers you added made the camber much more vertical than stock. When you're going forward, the tires will try to lean in at the top, but when you go backwards, they try to lean out. Get your alignment checked...
