Exclamation Pagid yellow front, gray back a good combo?

Have heard orange up front and blacks rear was a good combo for making the rears work harder. Was wondering if yellows mixed well with gray's.
Looking for a change after completely wearing a set of front oranges in 2 days of DE.

I run yellow up front, orange in the back. This is on my 97 tt.

I like RS 19 or 29 yellows in front and RS 14 black in the rear of my GT3. It helps balance the braking which is too front biased as stock. Front rotors last longer. Rears finally showing signs of wear. Rears are cheap, fronts are not.

Yellow and Gray is a huge difference in friction, and probably more than you need. Yellow/Black and Black/Gray are much more common. Grays often have limited selection and availability as well.
