Well..I don't think you can because you'd need custom brackets first of all to mount the calipers in the rear..then you'd have to worry about other clearances in the rear when you slap a bigger rotor back there.

Plus the front rotors have a top hat area and the rears do not, just like the rears are not vented like the fronts. It wouldn't work man..and if it did, then you spent too much money to make it work. Then you have issues w/ brake bias, your master cylinder, etc. Not worth it..

Rears have a hat too. The hat they have is used for the parking brake mechanism. you won't be able to use the front in the rear and make this work unless you get real creative.
