TLS Break Pads

Just had my 30k mile service at the ACURa Dealer. I was told that my rear break pads have 1 ml left on them. With that said, I need new rear pads and need to replace them fast. I really want stoping power so that I can keep driving agressively. But I don't want them to wear out after a few months either. So can you guys tell me which pads did you get for your car or should I go with the Stock pads. I would appreciate responses soon since I want to do the replacement withing a day or two. Thanks!

I'm willing to spend up to $70 for rear pads, but at that price they should be premium.

Thumbs up

I like EBC greenstuff pads, they've been working fine so far. They are low dust and easy on rotors.

Thanks golden for the heads up. However, I knew my rear breaks were low when I changed the front pads several months ago . The pads are squeeling like crazy and you can actually look between the wheel and note that they are low. In this case the dealer is absolutely right. But your heads up is much appreciated. Thanks!
