The difference is only 4-5mm of pad material. Gives me a little more rear brake bias
Have you ever put front base brakes on the rear of a base? I test fit a set they fit the caliper but extend about 1/64" over the inside lip. I then cut off the pin hole ear. I have a couple sets of EBC yellow non S front pads I believe I could still use.
