Quality of handling has increased for me. Steering will obviously feel slightly heavier with the larger contact patch up front. But overall the car is way more planted and ready to take turns hard. I'm lowered only a small amount with RCE yellow springs. My review of the setup is nothing but positives. You will need camber adjustment both front and rear to get the "look" right, otherwise your tires will stick out quite a bit, and handle poorly. I can't comment on mpg, I have never reset a trip, and only have driven 1,700 miles with this setup.

Is anyone running a larger brake setup like Wilwood, AP or OEM WRX 08?
What fits best and are there any clearance issues? |

I've got the AP Sprint kit. No fitment issues and they work well. The clearances are fairly tight, but not close enough to be a concern, IMO.
