Anyone have opinions on brake pads? I'm buying new rear pads this weekend, and want to know what everyone uses.

I'm looking at the Hawk HB525Z.540 ceramic pads. I can get them shipped for $77 from Amazon.

Thoughts?

 

They're fine daily driver pads. Not really high performance, but it's the rear of a FWD car, so they don't really need to be. The ceramics will dust less, but again, even something like HPS shouldn't dust too much at the back of the car.

 

I just put Hawk Hps pads on my rears and they are great. They dust though it looks like just a slight bit less than stock.
What's your plans with your rotors mine where to chewed to cut . Make sure you can reuse them or replace them.
Grease you're slides real well and remember the rear calipers are turn style and cannot just bd pushed back in.
Good luck .
