StopTech ST-60 & Enkei 18" RPF1 - Anyone running with this combo?

I've got ST-60 on the front and ST-45 on the rear now. I'm running the stock 19" rims now with absolutely no issue. I want to goto a 18" Enkei 18x8.5 +30 on the front with a 255x45R18 tire and a 18x9.5 +38 on the rear with a 275x45R18 tire.

Anyone have rubbing issues? I'm not dropped
Will the rims fit over the calipers?
Hows that affect VDC? More importantly, how's that affect ABS?
Is there an Enkei Sponsor on this site?

Would there be any advantage/disadvantage to try and find someone who sells the 18x9 +35 for the front instead of the 8.5?

I'm thinking of running a very similar setup.

Mind telling me how much your BBK setup ran for? You can PM me if you like

A rediculous amount of money. Somewhere over 5k installed.

In two rears i've gone through 2 caliper complete rebuilds, a set of rotors, and 4 pairs of pads (all done to the front). Thats probably another 3k. The rear equipment is still all original from the install.

But thats a lot of track time.

Are you sure the 18" will clear the ST-60 calipers? I had a set of 18" Enkei NT03+M that barely cleared my ST-40 calipers. Setup was 18"x9.5" +27 with 265/35/18 and 18"x10.5" +30 with 295/35/18. See my for sale thread for pics. I was fairly low at the time and had cut rear fenders and did not notice any rubbing. Note that I only had them on the car for an hour or less.
