1. Agree, I ran mine for a few days when I first got my car, I'd be hesitant to run them with R-comps on a track though, but on street tires and at an AutoX I would feel fine.

2. I'd say 17in are cheaper just because tires and wheels are cheaper than 18in wheels and tires.

3. I agree start out withOUT R-comps and get a feel for the car first.

4. I agree, Hawks are some of the best for reliablity, I run blues, and HT10s. I've heard of some people running HP+ without a problem, which is probably fine to start with. Make sure you put some good fluid in though, or at least some new fluid. It sucks pretty bad when the pedal just goes to the floor and you aren't expecting it.
