Im not concerned with the spacer as much as I am concerned of how much camber I would have to run up front for a setup with a spacer to work. Since the car is also my daily I would not want to have to run anything greater than -2.5 for it to work? Anyone have experience?
don't think about it too much. A 5mm spacer is almost nothing at all. Thats 5 paper clips unwound side by side.

Run 2 degrees of camber its great on the street. Once you exceed 3 degrees you start to get uneven wear. If you notice uneven wear at 2 degrees you aren't driving hard enough.

I am installing Ohlins next week with apex 18x10 up front and will update here.

Edit: I will also be installing my CCW which are 18x10 with 285/30/18 upfront. If that works, anything apex sell will.
