I use a 5KU buffer (57g) in one M4 and a TSC (69g) in my CQB gun, both with the stock recoil spring. If there's any increase in wear I'd say it's negligible, and it may even decrease it as there's more inertia and you can feel a slightly heavier "bump" but it's not as sharp as with the stock buffer.

I run a stock RS carbine buffer (113 grams) with the stock recoil spring. I've got a thousand rounds through it, no issue or excess wear. My concern is for the receiver potentially cracking near the rear buffer, but so far I've seen no obvious signs of damage or cracking or deformation.
