Helpful Expert Reply:
The largest stock wheel offered for your 2013 Nissan Altima S is an 18-inch size, so the addition of 20-inch rims has effectively used up most of your normal wheel well clearance.
The Firestone rear axle air bag kit you referenced, part # F4105, is a correct fit for your Altima but this will not really address the core problem of reduced clearance. It would stiffen the rear suspension and allow for independent side-to-side leveling but it would not regain any of the clearance lost from moving to the 20-inch wheels.
The only remedy to your problem is to return to smaller diameter wheels.
