Smile New bumper: front coil advice needed.

My new bumper (my solution to a previous thread).

With the additional weight the front coils actually feel better to me however I'm rubbing a bit at the back of the wheel well. (not a surprise to me). I need to do some trimming, but I'm also considering upgrading the front coils to the OME 845 (currently running OME 844) or simply adding a trim packer and spacer. I think Slee Offroad sells a metal 5mm one, can anyone confirm that?

Will a trim packer do much? Does it only get you 5mm of height of do the angle of the from A arms multiply it some?

If it's anything like a 3rd gen. The spacer size is not equal to the amount of lift you get.
