Look up at post #2, the distance between the camber plate (which is where it sits in the strut tower) and where the spring is located. The stock top mounts allow the spring perch, and therefore the spring to nestle up inside the strut tower better giving you the stock ride height. The Beatrush design pushes the spring away from the car. It's a simple cost effective design that isn't a problem if you're pairing it with a lowering spring/coilover.

Raceseng has a custom spring perch and spring perch bushing to give their setup near OEM ride height. (Just one reason their setup is $100+ more expensive than others)

(coincidentally, OP can see in the below picture that he was given the wrong length of screw)
