They definitely aren't. Bear in mind that the rears are vented (vs the standard solid ones) but considering how little the rears do - is it worth upgrading?

I think the rear calipers might even be the same, and it's just the carriers that are different - but you'd need to check an EPC.

Then you need better fluid and better discs / pads.

Hypocritical of course, because I upgraded mine too!
