S vs non-S calipers/brakes?

In the real world, 80% of your braking effort is on the fronts, so spending the bucks to do the rears is questionable.................

for straight line braking, but braking during slight turns and such, wouldn't using S at the front and non-s at the back unbalance the braking system? or would the ABS take care of this?
thanks in advance

We have several customers that run the "S" brakes on the front only, as well as a couple with Brembo’s “Big Red” two piece front rotors that are even bigger, and does not seem to upset the brake proportioning system at all............
