9" clutch with 10" pressure plate?

[PeteVS]

Can I use a clutch disc that's smaller than the pressure plate, say a 9" disc with a 10" pressure plate? Thanks!

Yes, but I have to ask the question, WHY?

If you have a 10 in. Pressure Plate, I think it would be best to use a 10 in. disc. Better life and may be even better operation. Clutch discs are not very expensive.

Again, Just my opinion.

Yes, but I have to ask the question, WHY

Without going too deep into details, it's a matter of economics.
