I have a 2005 saab 9-3 arc with 49k miles. I need new rear brakes and the front are down to 30% so I am changing both. I already bought the brembo rotors and now I am try to decide on pads. I think I am going to go with the akebono for the front. does it matter if I get the genuine saab part or the aftermarket version off tirerack? My second question is what the heck to do about the rear pads. They are the ones that are really making noise and need replaced. why does saab recommend not using ceramic on the rear? what are the best pads to use on the rear (i really dont care about the dust in back) only stopping power? is it okay to do ceramic in front and something else on the rear?
