also for tires being mounted on those rims, try Tires INC (off of pine st) in boulder to mount and balance them, they use a roadforce balancer from Hunter there to balance them, so they are dead on

I can mount and balance those wheels as well. Hockeyman and Scottay can vouch for my work.

Where can I find a good set of Spacers, again these have a 50 Offset

something such as this http://www.ichibausa.com/5mmalwhsp10.html, not totally sure about local though , i don't think you need much just a little, and any thing over that size i would definetly looking into longer wheel studs and such (also make sue they are hubcentric for the smoothest ride)

cause that's what they come in, and available for cheap, so a spacer would in "essence" bring that offset back smaller

IMO, springs aren't low enough.
But coilovers are $$$

Talk to Marcus / heeltoeauto (dot) com , also a vendor on here. He's been hooking me up from the get go, even sent me free socks along with the substantial discounts
He also provides free shipping.

Tell him Kevin sent you.
