Default Carbotech 10/10 or 10/8 combo

Looking to pick up a set of track pads soon. I am currently running the AX6 compound for autox and daily driving. I plan on sticking with the carbotechs due the fact that the dust washes off easy and I have to drive the pads to and from the track.

Car: 03 Z06. Kumho MX street tires.

My question is, should I run the XP10's all the way around or run the 10's front and 8's on the rear. People seem to be very happy with the 10/8 combo. Is there a real reason to go with the 10's all the way around?

01 Z06 and T1Rs. I run the 10/8 combo with SSBC tri-Power calipers and I'm not sure I'd want too much more bite in the rear. I can hit them pretty hard at the end of a straight and only occasionally do I cross the threshhold. I would like to hear what people think of the 10/10 combo also.

I really, really like the XP8/XP8 combo with street tires...
