I think it's a good call. 10-12mm should be ideal. I would definitely look into if you don't have them already a camber kit for the rears. Before I put the 15mm spacers on tire wear was very minimal to normal. After, burned through them in 5k miles. Just what I incurred myself.

I think it was 170.00. Compared to the others, a 1/3 of the cost and just as good if not better. Everyone I know that has the kit is extremely happy with the setup. You might shoot him a pm.

Currently. I bought Ghostrider's Camber Kit, but I've since decided not to change my springs because I'll be scraping to much on these LA roads (Daily Driver). I'll install the Camber Kit if it's still necessary for correct settings (Bilstein HD Shocks- 19X9.5 rear wheels-ET35; the insides of my rear wheels show more wear than the outsides).
Any thoughts?

That's my gut feeling, just want a few opinions.
That's a +1 for factory (springs) inside (rear wheel) wear, thanks Brian.

You would be hard pressed to follow most euro car and not see some negative camber. That is what creates the great handling characteristics most have. It is built into the design. Minimal wear is ok. When you burn through a rear set of tires in 7-8k miles it needs to be addressed.
