Well then are Repco good pads? Or should I have him stick with the soft OEM pads?
I didn't know that there was that much of a difference. I thought that the rear brakes only lasted about 25% longer than the fronts. Oh well, I guess it's normal then. It's only gonna cost $60. No big deal. Small price to pay.
Thanks for the help.
