I did mine 25 & 20mm (F & R). it looks good but could be a little lower, maybe 5 or 10mm, which is in the range of DIS adjustment. Might check alignment afterwards. Good luck.

Hey, has anyone actually seen these in person? For a 4.8 the installation of OEM also requires flares for an add'l $500-600. Quite a price difference!
