Hmmm....no, but may be worth a try.

There are a LOT of people running square setups on track, and the best functionality seems to be increasing the front bias with larger equipment, either 370-372mm front BBK with stock 350mm rear, or 380 front with 355mm rear.

A less front-biased rotor setup tends to work better with lower torque pads at the rear, but I would prefer to have consistent pad materials. I went with the Stoptech Club Race compound to start, and will see how it feels next year.
