Something for all you 5W-30 users to consider.
"Nice improvement in wear" is right! Your wear metals look great and your engine broke in quicker than mine.

Don't you know that thin is in? :-) There are probably thousands of people driving around with oil that sheared down to a 20 weight. If you're concerned about the shearing, go with an ester based synthetic and see how that holds up (GC, Motul 300V, Redline, etc.).
