No you don't want to put a washer in, that will make your car sit even higher (not to mention the extra load on the shock shaft). Also I suspect the spring is too big for the strut tower anyway...

What you want to do is use the KE top spring platform and strut top. Like you discovered the XT spring won't fit because the KE top spring platform is too big. You've also noticed the KE spring doesn't fit the XT strut.

So, you'll want to get AE86 springs. Not sure if KE70 ones are the same, I think T18 ones are different (they looked different to me). If you get lowered AE86 springs (KTFL33 I think), it'll sit your KE55 at stock height.
