from previous posts, i know that i can get the EBC Greenstuff brake pads from:

Click here, the URL is rediculously long...

i checked the EBC website and they only make front brake pads for the 1st and 2nd gen tibs. they started making rear pads for the 3rd gens though. damn them. what kind of pads should i get for the rear? any suggestions?

in reality... over 60% of your braking is done by the front wheels.. in some Front drivers that are REALLY nose heavy (like the v6 tib) the fronts do even more work... your biggest change is the front brakes.. if you look at really high performance cars.. they all have MUCH larger front brakes than rear..

I am running KVR carbon/fiber brake pads front and rear, and I get almost no brake dust, and they stop very well.

I think im going to get EBC Greenstuff for the front, and Hawks HPS for the rear. Didn't know brake pads would be this expensive...ouch.

Well; I'm using EBC Greenstuf's right now, they really brake better than the OEM's BUT... be prepared to change your rotors as well, because the EBC pads can cause your rotors to warp...
Do a search because I posted about this problem about two weeks ago here at RD.

I'm thinking of buying a set of Rotora Wheels through the guy at NewTib.com because I don't think I'm going to make it with the GB of majiktib... money is being short lately...
