I was looking at power stop rear pads for my g37 sport model. 30 bucks for them on rock auto. Or pay 50 for akebono?

 

I'd recommend matching pads F&R, so go with the Akebono until you need a new set up front. Or spring for a whole new F&R set. The Hawk HPS 5.0 pads are getting awesome reviews, but be sure you specify the 5.0 set over the regular HPS pads.

 

My front pads are still beefy. And I'm resurfacing my front rotors so that's good. And my friend sold his 370z and he has brand new rotors he only put 2k miles on that he is just giving me. And my rear pads are iffy. So I wanna just gonna change them. And I have no clue what my front pads are. I never changed them since I bought the car a year ago

 

Akebono pads are worth the extra cost. Excellent braking power with very low dust.

 

We've had very happy customers on the Akebono pads, myself included. Low dust, quiet, etc. Would work great as a rear pad.
