pro's..
You'll be losing weight due to shorter axle shaft and tubes.
It also looks much better with some dish on the rear wheels and it really opens up your options on wheels with the closer to center back spacing.

same here. i have a strange 12 bolt narrowed 2 inches per side and it is lighter than the stock 10 bolt. you are reducing rotating mass and unsprung weight. taking a few pounds off of stuff like that is alot different than just taking a few pounds off of sprung weight. and as mentioned before, more rim choices.
