Default Do I need new shocks

I just put an EZ-Up center stand on my RGU last week and I'm noticing that it's pretty easy to scrap the stand's feet on the ground when I lean the bike over. It's even more easy when the wife is the back.

I had the shocks pumped up to about 45 pounds, but it didn't make a difference. I can see that I've lost an in or two of ground clearance with the center stand. Would a stiffer show make a difference? Something like the HD Premium Shock or Progressive 444's?
