either way, will an alignment get this fixed or do i need spacers? i planned on running 5mm spacers, hope that will be enough to clear coils as well as tension rods, etc.

It may be that your steering rack is not centered properly. Count the turns from center to lock in either direction. If there is a noticeable difference in the position of the steering wheel when it is locked in either direction then your rack is not centered. A LOT of mechanics are too lazy or inept to properly center the rack as it can be a bitch if you don't get it right the first time.
