I have 9" discs at the front and 8" drums at the rear. I only fitted the
bigger drums for the handbrake action - the bias is such that 7" drums were
otherwise adequate.
I don't see a need for discs at the rear because most of the braking is done
by the front brakes apart from in the wet (if the bias is adjusted) which
isn't a factor because the limiting factor in stopping distance is grip. If
the Frontline rear disc kit weighs in at less than a drum back setup it might
have some advantage but for the likely cost I cost spend the money more
effectively elsewhere on the car.
I have never been a slave to fashion over function.
