the only issue I had switching between street and R comps was brake pads. When I scraped the front end, it was because I was really low and I was running very short tires. (dont remember the size). I run XP12s normally, and they are good for R compounds and AD08s, but when I ran other street tires, I had to go down to hawk blues. the carbotechs just engaged abs way too quickly. 10/8 may work, but depending on what tires you get, with the stock brakes you may want 12/10s I would try your current setup first though.
