Any particular reason you would try them over the AS spacers?
If I am reading the directions correctly, those spacers are just preloading the springs more to generate the lift, stretching the strut out farther in the process so there is less down stroke from the neutral position than before. Could cause problems/harshness, not sure.
The AS spacers seem better to me: cheaper, easier to install, made of painted steel vs. what looks like raw aluminum, and they preserve the original strut/spring relationship. Just my opinion.
