If Stoptech recommends a BB upgrade for fornt only, you can believe that they are matching that 4 pot fornt system to be ideal with stock rear brake calipers.
A Dodge Viper 4 pot, will not be the same as a Civic 4 pot.
By the way, I am going with the Stoptech 355 fornt system in black.

lol but to me its all worth it in the end
