rear tires hitting wheel wells, help!

I have a 99 Camry 5f-SE that has bigger tires and rims now, i think the stock tire was 195/70R14. I now have 215/55R17's. When ever i have a decent amount of weight or people in the back seats i can hear the tires hitting the wheel wells when i hit bumps. Does anyone have any ideas of what i can do to stop this problem? I would also not like to go so much smaller in tire size because my speedometer it back to normal with the bigger tires. any help is appreciated!
