My rear brake pads are almost gone, so I need to figure out where I shoudl go from here. I am not quite ready for a big brake upgrade yet, so should I just replace the rear pads with OEM?
If not, which pads are recomended? I don't track the car, just good pads for spirited street driving. Less dust would be good too, got to keep the REs shiny!
I know there is a lot of info on this in the archives, in fact I have been reading through them for like 30 minutes. But I couldn't really find an answer.

Replace the rotors while you're at it.
Typically with a big brake upgrade, you won't need to touch the rear calipers. If you do find yourself at the track, you'll probably want to run a different set of pads front and back, however, for street use, the Red Box pads are quite sufficient.
