    Doesn't really matter on the rear. Just buy one you've heard of like Mintex, EBC, even Honda. I use a not so well known Japanese brand called Koyo on the rear.

    I would suggest go with OEM or Brembo for the rear as they are both quite good

    Just to throw another one in there, SBS pads are great and a decent price.
