Question New Rotors

Can I put a new set of cross drilled rotors on the front and leave the OEM solid on the rear? The rear are very new and in great shape but the fronts ned replacement. In the middle of replacing brake hoses, rebuilding calipers and changing fluid.

I'm sure you've heard this before, but just in case. The drilled rotors wear out faster than the non drilled. I don't know that they necessarily wear past the useable limit, but they end up cracking. The best benefit is some improved cooling and reduced unsprung weight, but then you will also face having to replace them slightly more often. Of course, it sounds like you've already got them in which case you will likely care very little anyway.

But to reiterate the answer to your question is, "Of course!"
