using spacers to clear the colovers obviously changes the offset steve.

I only put 3mm spacers in mine and had problems. But with shocks and springs nobody has problems.

I never had problems with my coilovers or speedlines.
was running 195/40/16.
even when i fitted 5mm spacers to clear the reylands i never had problems.
