Default Best place to get rear pads??

wheres the best place to get a good deal on some uprated rear pads for 99/00 uk turbo.

Looking for the best deal on either pagid, mintex 1155 or ferodo ds2500. Have searched the net but can't find many places listing rears. Don't want EBC.

Reading this thread just makes me LOL.

Buy yourself some nice Apec rear pads that'll cost you less than a tenner and fit them. They don't squeal or knock and bang

From what I've been told hardly any braking comes from the rear of an impreza, so up-rating them with (in my view) pots of money brakes, is simply a complete waste of money. If you have got loads of spare cash and need to get rid of it, either send it to me / or throw it down your local drain......

Thanks Phill
