Rear brake pads????

So my rear pads need replaced. The inside pad has been rattling around because it wasn't fitting in the groves on the piston. Autozone brings over all the pads they have and none of them fit in the groove. The dealer says only factory pads will fit the rear correctly.

Has anyone used power stop pads? Did they fit? And those of you that used the hawk pads. And did the job yourself. Did they fit properly into the two hole like slots on the piston? Does the rear end of your car rattle over bumps?

I have the Duralast Autozone pads on my rears. Slipped into the grooves perfectly. Judging by the rims in your sig, you have the SS/TC? Maybe the LSJ and LNF rear pads are (slightly) different, and he grabbed the LSJ pads.

The parts guys are probably getting you the LSJ pads, which are number 1044 I believe.

When the T/Cs first came out, all the major retailers listed the wrong rear pads.

The correct number for the rear of an '08+ T/C is 1095.
