Default Rear brake pads
Where is the cheapest place to get these? Ideally needing performance ones as I do trackdays and need them to withstand the punishment. Currently have Mintex M1166 on the front, thanks.

Rears should match the fronts

Why is that bob when the rears only do 30% or so of the braking force.

Where possible, we would always recommend using the same compound front / rear to maintain brake balance, which ever manufacturer.
