    Autozone has a set. They aren't OEM..but they are ceramic and they are the correct size. 59.99.

    I bought some as an interim replacement for mine. They still have good stopping power. Brake dust is negligible compared to stock.

    Try the red stuff, they claim excellent stopping power and BMC has them for around 151 shipped for front.

    If you got your heart set on EBC Redstuff, eBay might be the cheapest place to get those. I've seen them for $66 rear set, $132 front set.

    If you don't mind something else try RockAuto... for rock bottom prices on a lot of stuff. How does Centric Posi-Quiets sound at $32 for a rear set and $41 for a front set? Thats crazy cheap.

    Part numbers:

    Front
    Bendix: MKD1149
    Chrysler: 5174311AC

    Rear
    Bendix: MKD592A
    Chrysler: 5174327AA

    Just loaded my shopping cart for S's and G's. $84.75 shipped to my door. Now go get the rotors for $320 and you've got all new brakes for what the dealer quoted pads for. LOL.

    At the moment I put in used stock pads that I got from Vinny. They stop awesome but the dust stinks. I ordered the rea stuff on Dans word that they stop equally to the factory. Stopping quickly has saved me from getting numerous tickets so I will make sure that anything I use from now on will do the job!! It aint easy to stop 5200 lbs from 120 all the time!!

    I know what you mean. I had the Yellow Stuff pads for Road America. Stopping the Jeep 3 times every lap from 130mph and many other over a 100mph stops around the track, my pads lasted 65 miles. I was grinding metal by the time I got home.
