You really don't want to do that. It would completely **** up your brake balance front to back. You really don't want the rear locking up before the front as would happen if you were to put much larger than stock calipers in back without changing the brake bias somehow.

Is there a particular braking behavior you're trying to correct? If you're looking for better overall braking, shorter stopping distances, then I suggest that you start by researching pad options. If you need more heat tolerance, if you're using the car on a race track, then venting might be the solution you need.
