The bigger rear brakes will not cause a problem with brake balance if the car has ABS. The ABS will just kick in really early. As far as stopping performance a larger rear brake will do nothing at all. All of the weight is transfered forward in a hard stop. Save your money and just get front calipers and rotors. Remember these are race car parts. squeeling and clunking and all those little annoying noises that you care about on a street car, are not taken into consideration on a race car. I have a friend who works at the US Importer for AP. THe brakes are awesome, but they are race car parts. Just my $.02.
