The aftermarket shims I've found are all in 0.05 increments, the Honda ones are available in 0.025 increments. It probably isn't critical but if I'm going to the trouble of doing it I may as well get it as accurate as possible. I use the Honda shims, I found a guy in the UK who exchanges them for 2 quid a shim on a goodwill basis - pretty cool in this day and age.
