Brembo rotors in front, stock rotors in rear...look funny?

I have the Brembo cross drilled/slotted rotors in front, but still have the stock rotors in the rear. With the stock 15" wheels, you can't really tell. However, my new 18" SSR GT1's should get to me this week. Wouldn't it look weird having the Brembo rotors in front and stock rotors in the rear? Or do you guys think it's ok? One good thing about the Brembo rotors is it's silver, not the goldish color like the Stillen rotors. So it's the same color as the stock rotors. Thoughts?

I think you'll be alright since the rotors are the same color, but I would eventually change to the brembo's once you get the cash. That's just my .02

That should be fine. Braking wise, the front gets more of a workout so they should have the better kits. For show, just make sure that you changed the rear at a later date.

At first I had fronts onlly...

1. it really bothered me...looks wise.

2. with all 4 it is...sort of intimidating when the ricer next to you sees the brembo xdrilled rotors at the REAR

IT WILL LOOK SO TIGHT with 18s.

No, the trick is to put both on one side.

Stillen all the way around is tight! Finishes off the hubs perfectly.
