The whole matching of springs to shocks is not that big a deal, sure, its important to do it for the best results, but all they do is matching the rebound/compression to the spring rates and vehicle its meant for.
Your choice of tire for example will change what is "matched"...as the extra weight of a big tire bouncing or needing damping, etc...will change what rebound/compression you need, which impacts he matching spring rates, etc. (A vicious cycle...)
The OME's are just plain 'ol twin tube shocks, nothing amazing.

No spacers....I too will be getting the AEV wheels, with thier backspacing we will have no concerns at all....and the AEV's are one of the few wheels designed for the TPMS....
