I also figure that I can always get coilovers and change to bigger wheels and better tires once i burn through the factory tires.

I wish I had seat time in earlier Twins for comparison to my MY17 PP, because I really like the ride (Sachs dampers) on the street and track (1 day so far.) The Brembo brakes on the car are the same size as the MY15 STI I traded for the BRZ, so they're more than adequate on the street. With race pads they're very capable on track. My shop told me I didn't need to change to a hi temp brake fluid until this summer and I think they're right- I didn't get close to overworking them earlier this week.
The stock pads have good bite but dust an incredible amount. Like clean your wheels every 3-5 days, which is crazy.
Personally, I'm only going to have front camber plates installed this year, I like the ride & handling that much. I do have 235/40-17 Pirelli P Zero AS Plus on the car for the street and they ride and handle very well. I have Dunlop Direzza ZIIs on 18" wheels for the track. I think the PP pkg is a bargain for $1K- big brakes, bigger, thicker rotors, good shocks and nice wheels. It would still be a bargain at $2k.
