Default Wheel Spacer

I'm currently running 7/15mm spacers f/r respectively on 235/295 tires (a street set, and a HPDE set) on stock wheels. I just bought another set of HPDE tires, this time with 305 rears. To provide the 305s room to 'breathe' I'm planning on putting some 7mm spacers on the rear. I'm wondering if there is any drawback/is it OK to put the 15mm spacers on the front. I've got -2 degrees camber up front, and am pretty sure there is room to do it, just not sure if 15s put too much stress on the hubs/bearings.

Opinions and facts appreciated.

I had 15s in front with lobster forks for about a year with no ill effects but for daily driving and canyons. I also had 15s in the rear with lobster forks and 305 PS4S. In that time, I drove to and from work 2 days a week 50 mile round trip, and 2 days a week 5 mile round trip. I also did a couple drives to San Diego and a half dozen runs up and down ACH and the surrounding area. I think total was about 5k mi.
I feel like I have posted too many pics. on the forum of my car with this set up and at some point, people are all going to revolt against me but if you want to see a pic. I can post one.
