16v Rear disks on a 8V



Well, first of all, what do you have in the front, stock 9.4"?  I would look 
into upgrading those first, especially if you are looking for real-life 
stopping power.  the front wheels average about 75% of the braking, so throw 
on some 10.1" 16v front brakes (or 11" G60's w/ adapters)  and you'll 
definitely be more pleased with the results.  After you do that, then look 
into rear disks.  1st things first (just my $.02)
