Bill

You don't need cooling on rear brakes..... Just Front Brakes

And your air is just going blow on the surface of one side of the rotor instead of coming in the center and having a backing plate to prevent the air from escaping and then going out the vents in the rotor.... so now you are cooling one side of the rotor and not the other and it will get stress cracks....

Just saying you might want to rethink that idea....

Morris,

Well thought out. It might be more of a concern for a jag rear end with inboard brakes on hard high speed braking than on out board brakes, especially under normal braking. However, you do make a good point that if a person were to do provide for venting to rear brakes, that it should be centered on the rotor to ensure equal cooling.
