I have tried a set I have laying around for fit, and it feels looser than I would be comfortable with.

How tight are the tolerances on the original KW springs? From experience, 60mm springs measure ~1-1.5mm over and perches/couplers are ~0-0.5mm under. 2.5" ID is nominally 63.5, not that far away from 62mm all things considered. Your spring perches should have enough room for either. Going with a "62mm" odd size spring might also limit what you can get for a helper spring setup.
