i ended up ordering a 12mm and a 10mm set. i am thinking ill just run the 10mm in the front. i dont have too much issue with the rear.

thought about that however i hate that you have to replace them from time to time. they are considered a consumable. basically dealing with high heat and stress overtime makes them weaker.
