Default Best Brake Pad

I have to change the rear pads on my 98 camaro z28 but im not sure what type of pad to get. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Everything on the braking system is stock. Thanks

Get the GM OEM Brake Pads, least amount of dust and very good pad

GM part number- 12454972

There are also the Durastop brake pads that the dealers use, I personally only use the GM OEM brake pads with my Eradispeed rotors, they work great

I agree factory pads work fine at least for the rear. Most of the real braking comes from up front.

I use the Hawk HPS Brake Pad. I noticed better stopping over stock. But I also replaced the rotors and put steel braided lines on the car.
