    It's hitting the adjuster I'm guessing...

    Yes, suspension manufacturers put helper springs on their coilover products just to rob you of your lowz and street cred...

    *facepalm*

    I am not saying don't do it - just be aware of what the repercussions are if you do.

    Yeah should have mentioned there is a few things to keep tabs on if you do it.
    Mainly when jacking the car up or putting it on the hoist. Chance of the main spring unseating and doing damage when u put the car back on the ground
