Greetings!!

I wanted some advice/input from the forum on a rear brake upgrade I poring over.

I already upgraded the front brakes on my 08 GT with the Ford Racing kit, Gt500 spec rotors/ brembo calipers and steel lines on all four corners.

I was very happy with the results.

I am thinking of possibly getting Steeda's 13 inch rear upgrade kit.

I am aware that there is no real increase in going with a larger rotor in back in terms of pad surface area as the kit uses the original pads and caliper, thus, any advantage derived must come from the larger rotor and the corresponding increase in surface area of the larger rotor leading to better cooling?

I am wondering if I will have issues with the ABS and or need a proportioning valve if I do this swap. The brakes seem fine with the current setup, I really just feel like it looks bad with the 14inch front rotors and the tiny stock rears.

Suggestions?

 

If you are doing the upgrade then it would pretty well be just be for looks.
