What's your ride height relative to stock? I'm on Swift BRZ Sport springs, which in concert with the cascam plates lowered the car by 1.5" in the front, 1.25" rear, quite a bit more than the expected 1.1" front 1" rear.
I added a 1/4" spacer between spring and upper perch to get to 1.25" lower all around, which helped but still I think I need about another 1/2" of bump travel.



Where I'm at, that lost bump travel is critical. At stock height I'm sure it's no big deal.
