Elliot,

Can you go over what you did to your car. It has been awhile and I am not sure I heard about everything you did.

why would anyone buy a set of brakes that caused them to not be able to buy any good tires? I'm sure the next step down brakes with R-spec tires would stop way better than bigger brakes with 19s. Brakes are only as good as the traction they can get out of the tires.

That leads me to believe there must be SOME 18s that will work otherwise those brakes would be completely useless.
