I am currently running a 6 inch rotor in the rear and 8 inch in the front, on my bike. I am thinking about buying a 8 inch rotor for the rear also. I was just wondering if it would make that much of a difference?

Save your money. A six inch should be fine

Unless you have a big n` heavy DH bike...6" should be enough.

if you only weight 130 don't worry about 8" rotors. 6" is really more than enough for some one your size
