There's no need to use spacers on the stock Omnium GXP BB in a 68mm shell - ever (despite what bull**** you read on the internet). In fact, using spacers on either side will cause the non drive-side crank arm to not bottom out on the spindle properly when installed and in some cases, cause the crank arm to actually make contact with the bearing cup.

You shouldn't have any trouble with chainline.
