These modern road cranksets from Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo are not meant to run shims on the BB, there is no chainline adjustment. GXP especially uses a stepped down spindle which requires a specific distance for preload; unless the shell is way out of spec, BB shims are not used on road cranks.

It looks like a Shimano Hollowtech II 50/34 fits.
I got Fsa Tempo Adventure square tapered crankset. That way it gives me more chain line adjustment. What do you think about using that with SRAM apex 10s?
