Hey Guys,
The dealership tells em its time to replace the rear pads. Any Pads that will perform any better or should I go for the factory pads. I dont know if rear pads can make too much of a difference. Any suggestions?

Porterfields have gotten very good review, but they do tend to dust. http://www.porterfield-brakes.com

I'm not sure how this will affect your rear brake warranty with Nissan though.

I've recently replaced mine with Wagners - I wouldn't recommend them, they make some noise. Check your e-brake - it seems not quite right that you have your rears worn out faster than fronts. Mine were probably dragging all the time due to heavy use of the e-brake
