Spiral Wrap on 30# class rod

I would like to know if one can use the Arc Shaped Boat Guides (ie. Fugi LRSG) and make a spiral wrap on a boat rod. It looks like the Arc might get in the way on the transition. Or should I just use a regular guide on the wrap?

Those work, even with the rear brace, however you may want to find a new favorite as those were recently discontinued. NSG's HNSG's and HB's are the current SIC guides that would be suited for a 30lb class rod.

I've been out of building for nearly two years and they go and discontinue LRSGs?!? Holy crap. And I thought these were the "go to" saltwater ring guides. Go figure.

I used the LRSG's for many yrs until the HBSG's came out which I now use and I think are much better
