Rear coil over shocks mounting options

In the past I have mounted rear coil over shocks “straight up” Because of limited space with the current project, “tilting” the top back about 8 degrees would solve the clearance issue.

Have some of you done so with an install? Is there any negative to tilting the shock back for clearance purposes?

This will be an aluminum body adjustable shock, 5” travel, 110 pound spring.

Thanks
