If you don't do the rears, would there be too much front bias?
I really can't speak to a front only install as I did all four at the same time. I was going to try the front only until I had all the parts for the rear, but my wheels didn't fit. I had to wait for the 19's to come in. By that time I had everything for the rears ready.

More info on my install:
