It's not a good idea to upgrade the rears. If you do, it might throw off the balance of your braking.

Besides, the rears only assist in about 20% of the braking.

Try it if you want your rears to lock up everytime you hit the brakes.

Could you use the front rotors and calipers for the rear, better braking?
