Matching rear Porterfield R4S pads

I have Porterfield R4S pads in front. What's a good matching rear pad?

Why would you want to mix and match?

Whoa, are those new? Last time I went to Porterfield in person, they didn't have matching rears. Great, Thanx!

call and talk to Porterfield and they'll make them for you. they have lots more than what's listed on the website.

But I'd also look at Hawk HPS. I like them better than the Porterfield..

I don't have cool bbk. HPS still the best for my stock setup? I'm an enthusiast who takes the twisty backroads.

HPS or Axxis MM are still your best bet.

I have the MM's in the rear right now. Right rear locks up first when straightline, I don't think it's due to tire wear. (well, now it probably is). Rears are due for new pads pretty soon. I'm going to try the HPS next. Thanx for inputs people.
