    This question has probably been asked many times before, but I have to order a new set of rear brake pads which isn't an issue as it seems the consensus of opinion is that SBS are the pads to have .
    But what do the number and the end letters mean as an example 834HF ?

    For SBS the last letters refer to the braking compound

    I use HS on the fronts and LS on the rear both are sintered.
    HF is ceramic, but I have never used them or the RS which are more for fast road/track

    the number are the fitment, for 2009 809 for front 834 for rear
