I'm sorry, I thought I had replied to this already.
Cruise is perfectly fine. I hardly noticed a difference in the spring rates. The tires are noisy, but that's to be expected ith this type of tire. However, the stock Michelins are pretty noisy for touring tires anyways, so it's a wash there.
8/10th is the same. Fun, responsive, and plenty of play in the tail for general hooning.
9/10ths+ is much improved. The front doesn't feel like it's struggling and the noise just shoots around corners pulling the tail with it. I haven't had a chance to take it to an AutoX yet, however. I was unable to attend the last two events I wanted to last year. But I have driven it down a very agressive road here in OH called the Triple Nickel (rt 555). It was fantastic and I was able to hunt down and hang on to a turbocharged G35 coupe. I could really get into the throttle early and launch out of turns at full song. I actually had to hang back and gap him before a turn so I could get a good run on exit to compensate for his power between the turns. Eventually he let me pass (then I missed a turn and ended back up behind him again. Oh well.
). But as for my desired setup, this car is spot-on. I'm extremely happy with it. And I'm amazed at how little I had to do to achieve this.

I got mine from RavSpec. They're a vendor here on the forum.
After getting some real camber on the car, I'm thinking I should have gone with the +35s. The perfectly flush tires I had before are now not so flush. But I do worry about the steering feel if I did. So I'm happy with what I've got.
