Taking some measurements and then running the suspension through its range without the springs will allow you to dial it all in. Raising the car will need to happen either way if you want to be anywhere close to your shock sweet spot and greatest handling capabilities.

Now that I've removed MY speculation by putting it on it's own weight and seen the clearance issues first hand, the spring spacers and shorter bump stops are in transit. That's certainly not going to make it ideal but it may be an improvement from the original setup and where it sits currently. Far from ideal, but with the firmer springs and spacers it could deliver twice the compression travel of the original setup and be in the softer valving range of the shock depending on how the Koni's stacks are setup. Won't know until it's on the ground and driven a bit......hopefully the springs don't dramatically settle into the pockets even though I've tried to put them in their 'sweet' spot.
