I always thought it best to run with coilovers, this way you loose the front spring cups so you aint gotta worry about fouling

it`s nothing to worry about mate if they do catch the spring cup you only need a slight knock with a hammer to move it about 5mm.

Also put a cloth on the shocker before hitting it to save damageing the paint.
