Default escort cossie wheels with coilovers

put my gaz coilovers on my xr3 today but the wheel hits the coilover, im running it with an rs1600i anti roll bar & mef adjustible tca's (no negitive camber)

is this normal as with spacers they will stick right out?

it ran ok with normal suspension aswell
