I have not - but thanks for the suggestion, I will try that.

To those who have asked, both the Ceramic Rotors and Pads and the Custom Winter Wheels are from Players Club in Atlanta. I hadn't worked with them before - there was another person here that bought the Ceramic Rotors and Pads from them, and was happy with the purchase.

The Rotors and Pads were about $12K, I just received them but haven't had them installed yet. The wheels are coming shortly.

Ive read some suggest 295 front, 305 rear ( stock setup ) even with 20s, but have also seen elsewhere suggestion to go for narrower setup 275 front and 295 rear.

Thanks in advance.
I will use the stock 20" sizes.
