Default GSR rear disc with stock front brakes. Good idea?

I'm able to get a great deal on a rear disc conv. for my 96 coupe ex. I havent upgraded the brakes on the front for gsr, but am waiting to install new brembo blanks and hawk pads on the front. Would it be ok to run the stock ex brakes on the front with the gsr rear discs?? also, will the rear disk off a gsr fit under my steelies?? Thanks alot

Yes and yes. My GSR rears fit under my 14's just fine. I also have stock '97 ex fronts, and my braking is just fine.

The EX front rotor size is 10.25" as well as the Integra. The only difference between the EX and Integra are the calipers. In actuality, you will have the same braking power as a Civic Si (same calipers and rotor size as EX).

Yes you'll be fine, and you will appreciate replacing the pads on the discs than on drums.
