Default Front-only BBK Brake Pad Balance

Hi,

Based on what I've read here I've been running Carbotech XP10's in front with my OEM brake calipers, and XP8's in the rear.

I will be upgrading to a front BBK soon (keeping rear OEM), and so my question is, should I still be using harder biting pads in front vs rear, or should I try XP10's all the way around given that the front will have more stopping torque compared to OEM brakes?

Thanks!

Carbotech suggested that I keep running xp10 in front and xp8 in the rear with my bbk. So that's what I'm doing.
