Its time for some rear brake pads. Did a search and didn't see much. I have the Cobra brake upgrade on the front, and plan to leave the rear stock as the brakes kick ass. What is the best rear pad to get, why, and where. Thanks.

A lot of people just get the "Autozone special of the week" or stock pads for the rears since they are there more for balance than pure stopping power. A quality front pad is more important.

Thats a good point that I didn't think about. No point paying $70 for rear brake pads that are barely used.

Yea, if the pads have life left, don't bother changing them.. quality pads for ALL wheels are important.. just because the rears don't do as much as the front, doesn't mean they don't do ANY braking.
