Why would you need spacers on the Tantrums? Konig makes them in the right offset for the 850/S70 negating the need for spacers. Besides, sticking in some spacers will probably end up causing the front tires to rub the outer fender lip--the 850s have very limited space in the front wheelwells. The widest I'd go on an 850 is 215/40/17--besides, you're not going to get much, if any, performance benefit picking a 225 tire over a 215 tire.
