Suspension lift kit doesn't improve tyre-arch clearance, because when fully compressed, the wheel will still be where it was on standard suspension. You need extended bump stops. By all means a lift kit (if it also allows extra drop) will restore (or even improve) the articulation you just lost with the larger bump stops.

Lot of money for little gain. Maybe a load of hassle too.
