Default bmr spring question

I just got a set of BMR springs. I have new kyb AGX struts. what way do the new springs go on the struts? The smaller tapered end hits the body of the strut but could be ground down just a tad to clear. and the other end is just a little bigger than the spring perch on the strut. i looked at the ones on my car and they look like the smaller end goes on the top into the strut mount. also im planning on getting new strut mounts are kyb ok?
