Coil spring spacers

I need about 1 inch of lift to get my 35 x 15.5 Ground Hawgs to clear the front fenders on my '78 swb 4x4. Has anybody used these before? I don't want to buy lift springs as I will most likely not put anything more than a 33 x 12.5 on it in the future. I only put these on because I got them for $200 mounted.

You are not serious are you? That looks like it will hurt you or someone else. Cant you get a set of coils for around 100 bucks?
