Blessing in disguise?

Alright, my damn rear brakes started grinding... Guess the pads are worn out... SO... Any ideas for upgraded pads, etc? What have you guys had success with?

The brakes are pretty good on 7's. Stock semi-metallic pads work fine if you don't mind early morning squeeks.

Rear pads arent as important as your front pads...

But EBC's and Hawk are what Id go with.

EBC's dust a lot IMO but dont hurt the rotor too much
Hawks, from what Ive seen, tear up rotors more than normal pads.
