The whole point of a brake system is to ensure that under no circumstances will the rear lock up before the front, since that would compromise your directional stability under braking, and putting a more aggressive pad in the rear than the front increases the risk of that happening.

I run PFC 08s in the front and StopTech Street Performance in the rear and have enjoyed it. Granted the only setup I'm comparing to is StopTech all around, so my insights will be of lesser value than others who I'm sure will be along to post shortly.
Thanks I guess I'll stick to 08's front and rear...
