i got a 172 don't know if i should get up rated rear brakes
it would be good to hear from people who have done this
and if they have done the right thing???

Don't bother.

Most of the braking is done on the front so as the chief's son says, dont bother

 

[DrR]

Yeah don't bother, they don't do much.

ok thanks how do you put a pic on here

Braking on most all cars especially small hatches is 80% at the front and 20% at the rear.

Not worth it in my opinion.

MarkCup's rear brakes are barely worn and he drives, er, quite quickly...

Possibly the only man I know who gets brake fade of DS2500 front pads on the way to work LoL

So, in answer to the question, no, don't bother!

Don't bother the backs do very little.
