I'm going to keep my eye on it and may just put the 10mm on the front and go to 5mm in the rear. 5mm is so small, I'm not sure it's worth the trouble; i.e. either go 10mm or go 0. I've got a few weeks to decide.

5mm does make a difference. it's subtle but the closer you get the tire sidewall to the fender the bigger difference you will see even with small increment changes. i would make sure that your spacer has a hubcentric lip though. im not sure if there are any 5mm that have the lip. you many need to use 10mm resulting in ET14. which is still

yah, i like the DW's too. no real complaints. ive gotten use to the softer sidewall response and it's not bad.

since my G is modded and runs S04's with pretty stiff sidewalls the contrast is noticable. that's all. too bad bridgestone tires are so frikken heavy though. atleast 4-5lbs difference per corner!
