What brake pads to use with EBC brake pads?

I bought a set of EBC red stuff brake pads in September. Fronts came right away. It is December and the rears are still back ordered and there is no scheduled delivery of the rear pads to the US from the UK anytime soon. This is coming from EBC themselves. This pad is extremely popular so I know there’s others dealing with the same problem. Returning the front pads Is not an option and I can’t sell them because who’s going to buy pads that they can’t match the back with. So what ceramic rear pad can I use with the front ebc pads?

They feel pretty grippy. But I haven’t truly tested them yet. I’m about to bed the brakes in.
And they have started to squeal a lot. Hope bedding them in will help. Will report back !

cheers

Also be mindful the brake dust on these are around the same as oem
