I read somewhere that someone makes a rear brake adapter that fits 13" Cobra front rotors to the rear... Steeda? I checked the site but no joy!! Anyone know what I' talking about?

Why would you want to do that . The rear are used for very little stopping more for Emergency braking. Plus the brake metering would be way off and you would have to use a different master cylinder!!!!!!!

One thing no one has mentioned is that you have to have at least 17" rims or they won't fit.

yes but the same little hockey puck caliper. So really all you are doing is adding weight

Here is a pick of the Bullitt rear Brake same as the Cobra but painted red
It is the same little ass hockey puck with a larger rotor so it would look cool |
