yep totally understand mate :smiley:

I'd just worry about the fronts for now, once they're on you can see if the rears can come out a bit too, maybe 10mm  :wink:

Would possibly look odd with 5mm all round, The rears sit quite far in already so the fronts would look to be sat out further, Saying that though 5mm isnt much of a noticeable difference

Yeah 5mm all round won't change the look from standard but will cut down on costs like you say
