Default 2007 CR-V front brakes

I'm going to look into this and see what fits/doesn't fit. 11.65" front, 12" rear...2 piston front calipers. Gonna see if I can warranty some and see if they'll fit the ITR hub and possibly fit under stock wheels. No point in this...unless someone knows if they fit or not!?

Are the new CR-Vs RWD? Unusual to have larger rear brakes on a FWD car, even yet as AWD.

Whether it's available or not, you do NOT want bigger rear brakes than front brakes.

The rear brakes are bigger diameter but they are probably not vented and therefore also rather thin rotors.

Therefore, yes they are bigger in diameter but not stronger rear brakes. This is typical, look at most 4 disc setup on SUV's, Pickups, etc. they have large diameter rear brakes, just thin and not vented.

Vented or not, I'd imagine clamping on the outer edge of a larger diameter disc would increase braking power. I'm assuming the lack of vents is because the rears don't get as hot and thus don't need as much cooling. Am I mistaken?

actually, from what I remember, I think they are bigger in diameter for the clamping surface is still smaller....like a big ring or something... why? not sure.
