Thanks for the comments, all.

Yes, though the valve stems which come with the wheels look a bit nicer. I ended up getting black caps to disguise them a bit, which did the job for me.

I had the same ones of my previous car which made a significant difference in the way the whole steering wheel felt.
I know you are asking the OP, but I just had front and rear Figs 2-piece rotors (and mega arms, rear upper control arms and toe links) installed a couple of weeks ago and I have noticed a big difference in how the car steers/behaves.... FOR THE BETTER!
just seems more crisp/nimble.. quicker response... could be all in my head though.... but I don't thinks so.

Looking at your sig, you seem to be quite a bit further along in the weight reduction department, yourself. I'm betting your car feels pretty agile and light on its feet. Any idea what your wheels weigh?

it definitely is a far cry from stock feeling as far as spirited driving and at the track....
TSW's are 19.9 lbs in the 18x9.5 sizes I'm running (track day setup btw) not what I run on the street.... usually anyway!
