More total travel would be nice for sure, but hard to make a big change there without spending a lot of money. The thing about the stock suspension is that it's plenty of droop (extension) travel and not enough bump travel. Raising the car with springs like this doesn't add to the total travel, but you trade droop travel for bump travel which is definitely a worthwhile trade to make.

(if you raise the car too much with springs and don't have enough droop travel, that is bad too. that's why we're sticking with 15mm lift for our own RCE Rally springs).
