I've got the HPS pads on all four corners. I love 'em. There's a noticeable difference when you've got them on all the way around. And yes, the rears don't require the mazda shims - this caused me lots of headache as well.

I have the HPS PLus on all 4's
These are pretty nice and the wear is pretty decent...Although they squeak a lil once in a while after they get wet, they are good, on and off the track. They are a lil more harder than then HPS...Hawk's are sweet though...
Go for it!

I use the HP+ for track and street, they warm up quick enough on the street but hold up on the track. I have been very happy, much better than the carbon fiber kvr's i had before.
