Yes, be really careful using the screw type spring compressors. I had a spring get away from me about 20 years ago. It could have killed me if I was on the wrong side of it. Shot about 30’ across the barn. There are really good spring compressors, and I have been temped to spend the money, but the top does not fit most coilovers, which are typically much narrower than stock springs.
Anyway, good luck and be careful. Not one of my favorite jobs. I did my E90 M3 on the car. I had to remove the struts to do my F90 M5.
