BBRs and St. Louis together?

I'm tentatively planning to smoke 2 racks of babybacks and 2 racks of St. Louis style spare ribs at the same time. I have an 18 in. WSM and I'm thinking of cooking the BBRs on the top rack and the St. Louis on the bottom at around 225-250 degrees. I've never tried this before and would appreciate any suggestions.
 
I've found baby backs cook faster. Either add the BBRs later or plan to them pull earlier.
Yup, I'll pull them earlier, wrap and put in a cooler. It occurred to me that the BBRs would drip fat all over the St. Louis ribs and make a mess of the rub, but I don't know how to avoid it.
 
You got a rib rack?
You can get both on the top rack if you like.

No rib rack yet. Maybe that's a solution. Any particular one you'd recommend? I'd need to get it at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.., or order it in time for it to get here by this Saturday.
