    I used to run -100mm rear springs and they were fine the wheels were the correct offset and the only problem I had was a lack of suspension travel

    There is a few places that will custom make you springs to whatever spec you want mate,

    I've just taken my 110mm springs out, they were pretty much useless. It was on the bump stops and now ive got a bad back. Unless you cut the bumP stops down and run shortened shocks it will be awful.
