If you were to use a shorter tire, you would start getting the lower control arms closer to the ground- which if you look under there- does not need to happen.
You've got the perfect height right now, tuckin' just a little tire, you just need to swap to a wheel with a little less width and more backspacing. There is also a 6.5" wide van rally found on some of the late '80s fullsize vans.
Good luck with your project.

The van rallies also don't have as deep backspacing so the ywill pull the tire into the wheel well a little more. I think once you get a bed on it and maybe drop the front tire size a bit, you will find that it sits just fine. I think you maybe just are getting a distorted view since it doesn't have the bed on it. It makes it look out of proportion. I think you did just fine personally.
