OEM brembos vs. BBK vs. standard oem. tracking....295/35/19 265/40/19
basicaly what kinda fade issues are we looking at... i know the standard oem have no chance here but are there just for a refrance point of basicly what i have right now.
i plan on getting some 19x9.5 19x10.5 and plan on tracking the car along with daily driving. any one familur with the tail of the dragon... how many full out runs on brembos everthing esle stock exsept for tires/rims would the brembos last before fading out. 5 of the 11 miles and 150 of the 314 turns or would oem brembos make it all the way....
right now i have standard oem with hawk ps pads and stop tech rotors with ss lines and i can make those fade out with winter tires on in less than 3 mins with my normal spritied drive.
will oem brembos be enough.....?

OEM brembo's were good enough for me, coupled with Hawk HP+ brake compounds all around. SuperBlue brake fluid helped with the fading, big time.
19s will only hurt your tracking. 18s are a good medium, or you can go with something like 17x10 +25 FN01R-C with 275/40 all around.

I suggest 17s as well, or 18s max. You don't want to track (for perf and cost) your street 19s. Brembos will last until you are an aggressive driver. When we drive the roadster at 98%, the Brembos last only 2-3 laps (with race pads). If you want to drive at 85% and alter your driving technique, they are a good solution though. I highly discourage the use of the 19s.
