08 Honda Accord Rear Brake Pads
My father has 44,000 miles on his 08 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Sedan and the rear brake pads needs to be replaced. The main problem is that he can't find any aftermarket rear brake pads for his car. He was wanted the Hawk HPS brakes like my 05 Accord V6 coupe has. He can only find front brake pads. Does anyone know where to find aftermarket rear brake pads? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hawk doesn't make a rear pad yet. PBR and Bendix are the only companies I found. The Bendix is ceramic, I'm guessing the PBR ones are semi-metallic or organic.
To be honest, I'd get the HPS' up front and go with Raybestos or QuietStop in the rear (from any parts store). The front brakes do the majority of braking anyways and the rear pads are known to wear faster than the front on the 8th gen Accords for some reason.

I just found some rear brake pads from Auto Zone called Duralast Gold cermamic pads. The 2008 and 2009 Honda Accords are having major rear brake problems with them wearing out much faster than the fronts. I read somewhere that the rear brakes were set up to do more to keep from the Accord diving when braking hard which I think that is a poor design if true. Thank you for your help.
