DO I NEED FRONT OR REAR BRAKE PADS?

POTENTIALLY BOTH, HOWEVER IT IS MUCH MORE LIKELY YOU WILL NEED TO REPLACE YOUR FRONT BRAKE PADS BEFORE REPLACING YOUR REAR BRAKE PADS.

THE REASON BEING THAT A VEHICLES FRONT BRAKE PADS ARE LIKELY TO WEAR OUT AT A QUICKER RATE THAN THE REAR BRAKE PADS DUE TO THE FRONT BRAKE PADS TAKING MUCH MORE OF THE BREAKING LOAD.
