i think what he means is that, with any car, under hard braking weight is going to transfer to the front and the rear is going to get light... the rear tires aren't going to have as much grip, so if you apply equal brake pressure, the rears are going to lock up.

race cars balance this out with a proportioning valve. OEM cars have a proportion (front to rear brake force) built into the valving of the master, based on the OEM stuff on the car.

track guys with OEM gear have to balance the systems out with pad compounds.

so.... for street tires, i'm betting a medium aggressive pad up front and OEM in the back should be fine.


PS. pressure bleeder is fine if you don't have a helper... and either way.. never let the system suck in air... keep refilling the reservoir while you flush.

PPS. Motul seems to be the right price/temp rating for most of us.
