It sure feels a lot stable in corner and there is a lot of grip from the wider track. However they just felt heavy and the weight transfer in corners are hard to materialize. (Front: 20.6lbs, Rear: 21.1lbs)

I recently switched to BBS RI-A in 18x9.5 et23 and 18x10.5 et37 with also PS4S but in 265/35 and 285/35 tires. Honestly, the car actually feels faster from standing and the entire car felt it got smaller due to decreased unsprung weight. (Front: 18.6lbs, Rear:19.4lbs). I got a 6 lbs total saving over 19s and 15lbs saving over stock, 20lbs if i run R Compound or 200TW tires. The difference is night and day. .

I know that for M2c will require AP racing or StopTech BBK to be able to fit 18s. If u have the money do it, u'll not regret it and running forged 18s are worth every penny.
This is exactly what I didn't want to hear. I'd love to switch to 18" if someone would sell me their lightly used, never tracked APracing fronts for half off
There's also the other option, Nickle Plated StopTech Trophies, I have it on my car. Highly recommend it and it fits 90% 18inch wheels too.

It's been hard driven 5000 street miles and 2 track days, these brakes are worth every buck Also they are about $3k cheaper front and back total compared to the AP racing brakes.

Literally minimum to no squealing from these brakes. Even with my PFC 08 race pads mounted, everything works like OEM
