How will a car perform during extreme braking when using MovIt front Brakes with only stock rears? What is the brake bias in such a configuration?

This depends on the suspension of the car. There’s no problem using a front Brake Kit only with the smaller stock rear brakes, although it would be better with larger rear brakes due to the car’s weight on the rear tires. With the larger brakes on the rear, you would gain quite a bit of braking force through the rear tires. If the rear brakes are too big (front caliper on the rear axle), the pedal travel will be too long. There’s also the possibility of over-braking of the rear tires. The MovIt Brake Kit uses large calipers, large pads, and large rotors to stay extremely cool but small pistons to avoid over-braking.
