Try http://www.rockauto.com. They have a great selection. I bought the Raybestos Quietstop ceramic pads. I love 'em.
BTW, your AE is the shizzy.

Are you using ceramic pads on cross-drilled, slotted rotors?

Guys I'm on OEM rotors. The ceramic pads are great. Hardly any dust at all and they're real quiet too.

i know some people are unhappy with the pads but they work great for me. 10k and holding so far. no dust, no noise, stop good. only quirk is that you can tell when they are wet.. so in wet weather it takes a few turns until they catch. nothing to make a difference if you hit the brakes but if you are looking for fade, you can find it.

I had the raybestos ceramics on and was disappointed with the performance. It dusted a little less, but not much. They weren't any quieter. I would have to say that they are probably the worst pad I have ever had on any car.

I just swapped them out for Hawk pads and couldn't be happier.

since i have cross drilled and slotted rotors..do you think these pads would work with them?
