Default track pad question PFC 08s

I have a stock 996turbo and am going to put track pads on. I am an advanced driver (PCA instructor). I am ordering PFC 08s for the front and wonder if I should go 08s all around or run the 11s in the rear? let me know what you think.

They're OEM parts so check dealers online. They're also only like $40 for the pair. They just clip on front control arms to help direct air at brakes.

Searching for '997 gt3 brake duct' will probably find the part numbers

Most serious 996 drivers are using 08 up front and 11 in the rear. Have been told by users that this compound combination straightens out 996 brake bias issues.

thanks guys. Ordered the combo 08/11 to my hotel in Hershey. Will be there for the swap meet on Saturday, driving down with about 15 Porsches tomorrow.
