I don't think the brand really matters. Just tell them you want the ceramic pads like silver said. If you get the semi metallic ones which are cheaper then they will squeak.

I believe I used brake best from oreily's works great for me. Plenty of stopping power. Not bad on the wallet either.

That's prolly what I'll get, I can get all this stuff cheaper through work since we have direct supply from O' Reilly, Bumper to Bumper, and R & S.
