We moved to Eibach spacers last summer. Seen one failure on another car but only one so I wouldn't panic.

Regarding the spacers, is there really any benefit to running 12mm spacers on the front? Also if you had them on the front would you need them on the rear aswell ideally?

it does widen the track of the car which helps a little witjh understeer (but not as much as keeping off the gas)

it does however increase wear on the bearings and add 477g to the mass of the wheel

looks good, and looks good on the back as well
