I was thinking of going with a Sram GX crankset with 175mm arms, but there seem to be multiple sizes of BB. I most often see the Shimano UN55 recommended. I wasn't sure if it would be compatible if I went with a Sram crankset.
I think you need something like this Sram GXP bottom bracket. You need to study the chainline question better though. Sram shows different chainline possibilities for their gx crank. I'm not sure how one obrains a different chainline with this kind of setup.
