For a street car I dont think straps are needed. Rarely do we lift the front end so fast and severely that the shock of a coilover is gonna take any abuse. And with a coilover you dont have to worry about the spring dropping out of its perch. So I think they arent needed.
Contact the manufacture of the coilover, they may have a small rubber snubber in the shock for both ends of travel. I wouldnt be surprised. A shock manufacture doesnt want his shock bottoming out metal to metal. JR

The reason why I use them in my offroad truck is the shocks themselves do not have internal bumps/stops to stop the shock shaft from going through the cap. This is on a shock that is greater then 2.0's and have more then 10" of travel..Most of our cars may see 4"
