Is there any reason to not just get them from the dealer? |

Get 'em from the dealer, unless you wanna pay top dollar for the high end Mayfits from Autozone or Advance |

Because the dealer is a rip off.  At least mine is. I have rear drums so i plan on just getting napa shoes when the time comes. I have ebc green stuff in the front and like them. Low dust, no noise, and they stop better than oem. If they made them in shoes i'd get them.

I don't know what normal people cost is on pads/shoes at the stealership, because last time I did my brakes before this time I worked for the stealership, and this time I work for another shop and we have a discount with them as a supplier...sooo... I've never used the EBC pads, but my boss has I think red ones on his RX7 and thinks they're the cats whiskers. |

Well if the mopar pads are going to cost as much as the EBCs then it'd be silly to not get the EBCs. If the price difference is a lot, then i'll just go for the mopars. I looked for brake pads on jparts.com but alas, they do not have them 
I found the EBCs here... http://www.autoanything.com/brakes/61A3070A0A0A2193287.aspx |

Rears are probably cheaper but not sure. Napa brakes will most definately be cheaper than the ebc's and the dealer's. |

Ive used napa brakes before on other vehicles with no problems they have to meet oem specs. Dealer pads are probably just as much as the ebc pads. If you want more stopping power get the ebc's. If you just want regular brake pads get the napas. |
