I have noticed - since the beginning - that our friend barks out orders in this manner, presumably using his telephone keypad for brevity, with no heed to manners nor subtlety, so I am assuming there must be some Paid Subscription version of the Forum where one is Entitled to obtain answers from the Staff.
And maybe CAPITALS get a subscriber a priority reply.
As I’m not one of the Staff I will hold my counsel.

In response to the op's question it is perfectly acceptable. The rear tires will also sometimes rub on the bump stops at full droop. Unless you are getting impressive air going around a very tight corner you will never experience the problem in real life.
