Disk brakes on the rear is so you can say look, I have cool disk brakes on the back unless you autocross or drive in rain all the time.
Front brakes provide 75-80% of braking (weight transfer) and the rears the rest.
Spend your money on more meaningful things if bling is less important than reality.
A rear disk kit will be what ~750? A rear drum rebuild ~100? Think...
