I want to run these on my DD.
Will these brakes perform better or worse aggregate across all categories that determines brake performance? I understand rear bias... and can't imagine a situation where this would effect me on the street.
Am I going to kill myself with these brakes? Lol ��
Remember I DON'T track. I'm turbocharged at about 320hp.
I just want to know if I'll be okay or should I sell everything... and maybe buy a wilwood kit.

Braking performance is first and foremost determined by your tires. Barring that, I personally would not risk it, but I wouldn't run Wilwoods either.
Honestly, running your stock calipers with just some upgraded pads and fluids are a better idea.
