As you pay so much attention to the brake bias (front to rear), would it result in different piston sizes for the front calipers in the cases:
1) AP front, stock rear
2) AP front, AP rear
I mean, if I buy AP fronts from your offer, keeping my stock rears to make some test-drives - would it mean I have to reconsider pistons (or whatever) in me fronts, when I decide to upgrade rears also to keep the right brake balance?

Thanks MSTiFK8R. - All of the front Competition and Formula kits will be designed to maintain proper brake bias with the OEM rear setup. The piston sizes and disc diameters will allow you to bolt them up without any ABS issues, etc. It will be a bolt-on, seamless affair.
- The rear Formula kit will be designed to work properly with the two front Formula kits. It will mimic the OEM rear setup. If you bought a front Formula Kit and wanted to add a rear later as budget allowed, that wouldn't be a problem at all.
- We are currently evaluating a rear Competition kit. When we do produce one, it will also mimic the OEM rear setup, so you'll be able to add it on later without any issues.
So no, you should not have any fear of buying a front kit and not having it work if/when you upgrade the rears. It's quite common for people to buy the fronts then add the rears later.
