It is nothing severe, but I'll suddenly realise that my hands are kinda numb and the wheel has been vibrating. For spirited driving where you are actually holding the wheel and turning it and DRIVING the car, they are flat out amazing.
If you DD the car long distances, maybe look past these and focus on tires and coilover first.
If you DRIVE the car and do any sort of track and AutoX, I would never tell anyone to not buy them. I'm impressed.
EDIT: For comparison, I also have the Perrin 3.0" exhaust.

Hmm. Interesting that you notice the NVH. To fair, my car is an in-town vehicle primarily. Never really drive more than a few minutes over 55mph on average, so maybe I just haven't really experienced it yet.
Or, perhaps it has to do with our Tire / Wheel combos too? I have Enkei RP03 17" With Dunlop ZII's 245/40.
