Question Anyone recommend a good rear brake pad for road use? 2 pots

As per the title really. I have a 2003 newage wagon. I've just bought a set of brembos for the front but the rear discs/pads are starting to wear low and I might replace them at the same time. I shall just be keeping the newage rear 2 pots. But can anyone recommend some rear pads just for fast road?
Doubt I'll be doing track days. Something that gives off the least amount of dust possible would be good

thanks

you would be far better trying to at least "match" what your using on the front as you have introduced a heavier front bias with the Brembo's.......

I see what you mean. Ok I'll do a bit of research. The issue is that the bremobos I've bought are coming with nearly new discs and pads. I have no idea what brand they are though....

Bought a set of PF08's for my front calipers from Alyn and the same time got a set of matching PF pads for the rear to keep things even. Car brakes like a boss
