2mm variance in the chainline is not even noticeable. .25mm chainline variance is well within the margin of measuring error.
I'll post pictures later as I said. You can see the chain immediately shifting outward leaving the cog, and again shifting inward when it engages the chainring. Besides that, it makes a nice creaking sound as well, which is NOT from the chain being too tight.

No, the issue is that it goes too far OUT, not inward. Using the spacers would only push it further out. I could redish the wheel but it's not worth ruining a perfectly good wheel, or set the tracking off.
