Lift Kit Rear Axle Offset

just installed a Rubicon Express 4.5 lift and I have noticed that the passenger side rear tire is about an inch further out then the drivers side, couple that with wheels that have too much back space on the wheels and you get a tire that rubs the spring mount. I have ordered replacement wheels with the correct backspacing but would like to know of any fixes for the offset. I understand that there should be about 3/4 of an inch but my trackbar extends the axle out further then that.
 
My 90 YJ used to do that. Since I have leaf springs, I ditched the track bars & now the axle is centered. Coil springs need the track bars though, so X2 on the adjustable swap.
 

Changed the wheels, Installed the RE 1620 adjustable trackbar and had the vehicle aligned, everything worked out great, just thought I'd follow-up.
