what is the pad for? daily driving? OEM is good, since it'll dust less than most pads out there.

If you want more out of your pads, axxis ultimates (PBRs) are good, as are cobalt friction GT sports, and Carbotechs. Rear pads won't really impact as much as front pads, and getting better pads for the rear can affect your brake balance (which can be good and bad.)

for rotors, napa/autozone/kragen replacements are just fine. rotors are rotors.

I couldn't find Brembos for the rear either. I got some Eurotors, so far they have been good. I also got PBR Metal Masters for the rear, very nice pads the hotter they get the better they work.. no fade.

I'm using brembo blanks with axxiss metal masters, these things GRIP as they heat up. Brembo DOES make them for the rear, they are branded as BRADI according to ImportRP in the Sponsor forum. for Mike/Jeff @importRP for their fast shipping too.
