Front Spring Install / Noise problem found

I don't know about other springs, but the Progress springs seem to be wider than the OEM ones. I'm not sure if the coils are wider for the Si than the EX, but on my EX, the coil are hitting the vehicles body when mounted. If you look up into the wheel well where the top mount slides into the frame, you can see the spring has zero clearance causing it to hit the frame when going over bumps.
