A lot of us had to upgrade the fronts to get what you already have, which is a decent setup for a street car. Bigger fronts and rear disks will likely push you to bigger wheels, which may not be desireable if wanting it to look stock. More aggressive driving or a desire to go the resto-mod route might be reasons to do more though. Disks make their biggest impact in extremely wet weather or in repeated hard braking.
