Do you mean on my car specifically? I'm on stock suspension still. Any replacement strut should use the same perch type/position, but coilovers are completely different. The perch/collar will only be as wide as the spring, which is much narrower than stock.
When I get a chance, I want to get under the car and see how much room there really is. I can't fit a finger between the spring and the tire, I can just tell it's really close. I can feel the perch, but it's hard to tell where on the wheel/tire it lines up.
