anywhere from 0.5cm - 2cm would be a decent sized spacer
altho i'd rather be on the bigger side

Please don't say stuff like that. I think the tein spacers are 6mm thick and I wouldn't go much more than that on stock size inner tie rods. 2cm or 20mm would take up pretty much all the threads on the inner tie rod.

You have to put a little more thought into it than just shortening the steering arm on the spindle. Steering geometry can get complicated and there are other factors that will contribute to how the steering feels. And you have ackerman to consider and all that other fun stuff. But even just shortening the arm is going to increase the steering effort.
