Is it not possible for 10mm spacers to the front?

Does fitting of spacers negatively affect any aspect of handling etc on a road car that has everything configured for certain dimensions, load, angle etc and is there a max size that be safely fitted?

Sims yes, the more width you put on the axle the more the wheels negative camber angle will change (technically).
