Question Question about rear brake pads.

Hi guys! I soon have to change the rear brake pads for the first time. Question: what pads to install? The genuine or there are good analogs?

I have EBC Yellows... Wasnt a fan of the brand but I have nothing to say. They squeal a bit if you drive in town a lot and gently apply the brakes repeteadly. For 1/2 price... cant complain

Akebono and Porterfield R4-S are good. Depends on what you’re looking for...the two I mentioned are easy on the rotors and generate far less brake dust than the OEM MB pads. If you’re looking for stopping power then metallic pads are good, but expect them to squeal a bit.

I’ll be putting on the Hawk HPS 5.0 all around in a week. Heard good things from my buddies on their STI. Will update shortly.

Unless you track your car, I would simply go with genuine OEM pads.
