Default Mixing Rotors....Can this be done?

I'm thinking of putting Zimmerman solid rotors in the front and CRP rotors in the rear. Can this be done or do the rotors have to be the same?

Default don't have to be the same (plenty of people upgrade just the fronts)

just be aware that your brake bias may change

Default Simple question, but long answer. Check the white papers on Stoptech's site.

They have a nice discussion of it.

Default yeah well I posted my search but google classified it for my browser which probably wouldn't work

for you.

Basically the difference between the front and rear braking ability.

If you do a google search on brake bias there is tons of info.
