Both the front and rear brakes on my friend's car were Wilwood discs and although I didn't measure the front rotors, I'm sure they were bigger than the tiny Mustang II rotors I used to have on my car. My thought was that since the builder went to the expense of Wilwoods to begin with, why would he have used such small units? Maybe he just had them laying around and decided to put them to use, or maybe it was just a mistake and the larger brakes were installed on the rear. If that's the case, to my thinking, he should not have charged my buddy to correct the error. My opinions aside, my real question is why would anyone want to have smaller brakes on the front than the rear?
