Need new brake pads, so OEM or Pagid?
Hi,
Talked to the shop they say I need new rear pads, so I am looking at what to get...
Car is a tuned (Cobb E85, IC's, Exhaust) 997.1 turbo, it is my daily driver with only a few track days/year.
I drive the car in the winter ( in Sweden) so I need some grip with cold brakes (like really cold brakes).
Should I just stay with the stock pads, I have a semi-fresh set up front so then I only need new rear pads. Or should I go with something better?
I have a very low tolerance against unwanted noise, so if all "upgrades" will annoy me then i rather stay stock (it is still the best brakes I had).
Second question, does new brake lines give a noticeable improvement over stock? Since I plan on bleeding the brake system anyways its a good time to do them.
thanks guys for any advice here...

I have a set of OEM rear brake pads that I would sell pretty cheap. I bought a complete set of brakes off of a 997Turbo and ended up only using the front calipers and rotors as I have a 996Turbo. I have the stock 997TT rear rotors calipers and pads all oem with less than 8k on them. Make me an offer for the rear pads.
