Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM Honda

POWER STOP Brake pads

For a street only car, powerstop pads are what I ran for the longest time; very little to no brake dust, and I feel they bite better than auto part store pads; if you want to head into track-ready/entry pads, then the rest of the comments here are a decent guide at what to look for

Pros: low dust, good bite

POWER STOP Brake pads

I have an 09 G37x Coupe and we have the same brakes, 320/307 rotors. I just installed the POWERSTOP Z26 brake kit and it's very good. You'll need more brake part lube than they give you but other than that the kit is really nice and definitely worth it, carbon ceramic pads last way longer.

Pros: very good, long lasting
Cons: needs more lube
Vehicle: Infiniti G

I have that kit on my 2013 A6 and have a set waiting to go on my 2011 S5. I would highly recommend, great quality, have used them on many different vehicles, best bang for buck.

Pros: great quality, best bang for buck

I just installed PowerStop z23 kit myself. The breaks are great plenty of stopping power but the initial bite of the pads are different. Also almost no brake dust.

Pros: plenty stopping power, no dust
Cons: different initial bite

POWER STOP Brake pads

My car needs brakes really bad. I had the Front pads replaced at about 60k miles, and it cost me $400 (From a local shop, parts had to be ordered direct from VW). The rears needed replaced then, but I couldn't afford it and just now have the extra cash to do them and figure I will do all 4 brakes at the same time. Also decided to buy parts online because it seems to be MUCH cheaper (Only place I can find local stocking the correct parts is VW, and they are pretty pricey of course). I figured Amazon would be the first place to look (Because I shop there for everything, and have Prime so I get free shipping on everything). Found these, which seem like a good fit: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D27YQC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER (Plus, they are 10% off.) The problem is, I cannot find rear brake pads at a similar price, anywhere I look. I figured Power Stop would have a similar pair for the back, but I cannot find them on Amazon (They have such a crappy search function for auto parts). I have tried searching various other sites that carry the above linked pads (Summit, Jegs, THmotorsports) but all of them either don't show rear pads, or their site doesn't search properly. I even tried the Power Stop website to find a parts number but when you 'select your car' the only VW option is Passat. It's driving me crazy. Anyone have an idea of either the parts number for the rear power stop brakes, OR a link to some good similarly priced rears (or front and rears)??? I am planning to get these rotors: http://thmotorsports.com/ebc_brakes...c_brakes/ebc_brake_rotors_upr_premium_replacement_rotors/upr1772/i-1806853.aspx Not looking for anything fancy or top of the line. Car is a daily driver and has been retired from heavy driving ever since it hit 80k miles. Now it just gets me to and from work, and the occasional out of town trip on the weekends. Car is a 2013 VW Jetta S (2.0 4cyl, Non-turbo)

Pros: cheaper online parts
Cons: difficulty finding rear pads, poor search function
Mileage: 60000 km
