Actually, the more one increases the
traction of the front ..., that is true as you note later. Also, these cars have a relatively low CG, so the weight transfer is not as much as on other cars.

This is not true. The S rotors are 318mm. The base are 298mm which give about a 7% greater front braking bias.

I've looked there and elsewhere for years. I have an 'S', so I'm mostly interested in providing the numbers to others when the subject comes up.
