Firstly dont use spacers and changing shocks wont make it any easier to fit them.

Coilovers will make it easier, as will getting the right sized tyres. How wide are those rims? If you can get away with running 225/35/20s they should fit.

Im not really well versed with fitting 20s on <VL but theres threads on SC that will tell you.

They should fit, 20s will fit on a VN with 225/35s, and they run the same strut as VB i believe

If you run into troubles in the front end, just use a 5mm spacer. That's what i'm running
