just read pedro's story; seems he learned this lesson the hard way. glad he's alright.

FYI, i run 996 calipers and disks front and rear. i use different compounds to modify my brake bias. this is a bit trial and error. as a rule of thumb, a stickier tire requires a pad w/ less friction coefficient in back. pay attention to heat curves! different pad materials get WAY grippy at different temps.
