Time to replace brake pads any recommendations

Looking for some brake pads to replace on the rear. Front factory pads still newer. Would be nice to have less brake dust.

Anything Ceramic. I have used the below brand but not on the Jag. Also have used Wagner and Raybestos.

My recommendation is if you want to go to a non OEM brake pad you will need to replace both front and rear at the same time since the coefficient of friction needs to be the same. As I have said before in the forum. I used ceramic pads on my 2001 XJR and while they had significantly less brake dust they didn't stop as well as the OEM pads and rotors.
