I will be tiling my bathroom with porcelain 600x300's and focusing on the tilebacker at the moment.

First Issue is I've got about 5mm out on a plumbline on a first metal stud wall and im sure the rest will be with issues so how to solve?

I've thought about shimming with some plastic packers, will this be suitable and solid enough? OR do I have other options?
