I remember watching one of the jafromobile videos on youtube and he mentions that a stock csm strut will lower a 1g dsm since the spring pocket sits lower like you're talking about. If that's true it would save you some cutting and welding but I see you already have struts ordered.
while that is true you cant run a very tall tire. 215/45/17 wont clear the perch. from my experience
here is the bilstein review:

After installing them I took it out for a ride and the car was much much more controlled especially with body roll, acceleration kickback, the braking nose-dive and those sloppy lateral movements DSMs usually have.
In comparison to the KYB GR2s they ride better and perform better from what I can remember from having them in my 91 AWD years ago. Bilsteins rebound setting is noticeably more aggressive giving the driver more control.. The compression valving rides more sporty kinda as the car should have from the factory, but ride better than the GR2s. I remember my GR2s riding a little rougher and then when I stepped up to the AGXs I thought my brain was shaking around in my head every time I went over a bump or pothole.
