You could have a 13/16 set up and still have good bias numbers.
For years Ford has had larger rear rotors than fronts. And needless to say the dynamics of a truck are not as favorable as your car.
*But 'no' there is currently no Wilwood 14" rear kit. (the former kit of about three or so years ago could have been modified for that but not the current design- call it insider info)

Never heard of bigger rotors in the rear if what 75% of braking power is up front what would be achieved by doing it, wouldnt just be a waste of $. Plus your still n/A so why do you need so much braking power

have you ever noticed that people prettymuch never change rear pads and rotors when doing brakes thats bveacause somthing like 90% of brakeing is none by the front brakes thats why the front brakes are bigger on most cars then the rear so my advice is to rethink and find another kit
