Default 2wd rear brake pads different to 4x4 pads

Shopping around for a new set of rear pads, are the tears different on the 4x4's to the 2wds? And where's the best place to get some decent pads?

Cheers

If you're talking about the Cosworths then the rear pads are all the same.

I put EBC red pads on mine. Seem to do the trick, but everybody will have their own opinions I'm sure

Strangely though...some retailers images of the rear pads show different designs.

I was always under the impression 2wd/4wd were same though

all the rear pads are going to be the same, seeing as they use the same caliper
