Supports Issue

I've been having issues printing models that require support. While I rarely need to use supports, when I do I prefer to use Slicer PE over Cura as the supports are way easier to detach. The problem I'm having is the nozzle will always, every time, contact the supports when printing at some point. It doesn't connect with every pass, could be 5 or 10 minutes apart, or back to back passes. It's just a matter of whether it knocks the supports loose or not. This happens on both my MK2 and MK3S. The latest model has a max print speed of 40, and that's what I'm printing the supports at too. Prusa PLA, nozzle 210, bed 60. Contact Z distance: 0.2, Pattern: Rectilinear, Pattern Spacing: 2.5. And it's only the support material that makes contact, never the actual model. Any thoughts how I might correct this?

Thanks
