Use a longer bolt and you can mount struts to both sides of en eyelet, using a 
locknut on the inside. That might resolve any tangling/proximity issues with 
the struts.
It's worked for me

I've had both the Tubus Cosmo and Nitto R-14 on my Atlantis with SKS.

I don't know, if you click on the photo of the rack you can see how bulky 
the rack is where the tang slides up and down to fit different size bikes. 
The fact that the rack is so bulky at that point and the SKS fender stays 
come right down the middle of the of the wheel makes it all too much to fit 
on a single eyelet. It occurs to me while I'm typing this that the first 
part of the fender stays V usually lands at about 1:00 but I rotated the 
fender a little so it wouldn't fall as far down behind the rear tire and so 
I could have full coverage in front of the bottom bracket. Essentially I 
cut the part of the fender with the cut out for the front derailleur off 
since I don't have one. Anyway that moved the front part of the V to about 
12:00. 

I hope that isn't too confusing, I think either way those stays and that 
rack aren't going to play well. Do you have some pictures of your rack and 
sks bike set up?
