Goin with Hawk HPS pads for front, but what about rear?
I decided I want to try the Hawk HPS brake pads for the front wheels, but it looks like they don't make rear pads. What would you suggest I get for the rear? I'm not looking for anything crazy, something on par with the HPS or even below, it doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter that much. If you are just worried about driving on the street.
If you are autocrossing, I've found the brake bias is a little better with an aggressive pad up front and the stock compound in the rear. The combination seems to minimize abs "ice" mode.
There is a good article about using different brake pads to adjust brake bias in the latest SportsCar Magazine.
