Try loosening the hub to upright bolts and tilting the upright as far away from the strut as you can. Otherwise add some spacers to gain clearance.

It might help if you posted a picture. But these are not exact stock replacements, so the shock body might be bigger, the spring seat could be in a different place along the shock body or a number of other things to affect it.
