Hi, its normal, that the coil rubs at the wheel when jacked up.
You need to work with an inner spanner, that uses two "dishes" to span the spring. Its normally used for Mercedes cars and with that, it works very well, although also need sometimes towo or three attempts to get the "dishes" into the right position - you need to position them as far from each other as possible, to get them out easily.

Hi Thomas,
just to be on the safe side, as I plan to overhaul my front suspension soon:
do you mean the sort of spring compressor shown below?
Yes absolutely, these are the rights ones! In Common Internet platforms there are many Sets of these, usually there are Two Pairs of "plates" in it, the Dino needs the bigger ones.

This is the one (very cheap) I used to install my springs
It worked well but you have to be careful to position the 2 fixings in opposition so that the spring remains straight
