Does anyone know the change in spring/shock rate by running the small build shock with offset top mount compared to the non- offset. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Not enough to make a noticeable difference.

But if you want to do the math and see for yourself:

Bottom line is that moving the upper mount has very little effect. Moving the lower mount is a much different story because it changes the motion ratio.

Thanks so much Matt! I really could not see the 1/2" making a big difference, but do not want to uspet the car. My rf got destroyed on another car and am curious about really needing the offset shock.
