I would remove them. You won't hit on smooth roads but you can expect to hit on pot holes and rough roads. What you can do is cut the bumpstop mount off the lower control arm and install a universal bumpstop like you would find on a set of traction bars. This will give you the same suspension travel as stock.

Off the top of my head I don't know what they look like but, most lower springs will require a slight mod of the bump stops.
Why don't you try driving it to see? If it hits, cut an inch off of them with a sawzall. If you need more off, buy some lower profile ones and bolt them on. Or you could just call the manufacturer... |

because i have it all aprt for Paint and Detail, and dont want to go through the hassle of doing it on the truck and having to repaint it. I just thought id as so i could just do it if it needed to be done.
