I think I may of used a 2mm spacer to clear the tie rod. The offset issue is caused by the rim hitting the tie rod so bigger the wheel the less of the problem

/\/\WHS/\/\/\ I've got the same wheels for my project car (and discovered the track rod end fouling problem), will be interesting to see if getting this ride height will need modded arches; I reckon so.
