Default Carbotech Bobcats in Front, what pads to use in rear?!?

Hi Guys,

I have been all over this board looking for answers of all sorts, and I wanted to thank everyone for their patience with me. I currently have axxis ultimates on brembo blanks and am about to buy new pads. I am considering Carbotech Bobcats and I was wondering if there is a good combination of Bobcats on the front and something on the rear? If i wanted something that cost a bit less on the rears, what are your recommendations? I was thinking of something like Axxis Metal masters in the rear. What do you think?

Thanks again guys

firstly, please dont bump your post 20 minutes after you make it. wait a day.

and just run some autozone pads in the rear (not the cheap ones, like the duralast golds)

why? because your rear brakes do about 15% of your total braking, and ill ALMOST bet you dont actually use your car on track to heat the brake enough to the point of fade.
