Default Rotor Question

I just received a set of polished rotors I purchased off Ebay. The boxes each say "front" on them. Is there a difference between the front and rear rotors or am I fine with using one for the rear? Oh - 07 Softail Custom FXSTC

The rear is thicker, at least it is with the stock rotors that came on my 2000. Take a look at your stockers, the minimum thickness is on each of them.

The rear rotor uses a larger Torx bolt than the front. You can't use a front rotor on the back.

Front and rear were different on my '04 NT, not inter-changeable
