They should be per pair, I've never seen them sold individually.

You don't have any advance auto parts stores there? You can order them from advanceautoparts.com I run them on mine. Seem to be good pads. Hell I work at advance so I even get a discount.

I just put them on my fronts todays. I had the bendix for the last 4 years, might as well try something different. Bendix are life time but the Friction Masters are only 2 years so I just paid the differnence..$6.00 If I dont like them I can always go back to bendix or somthing else.

Bendix duested to much and these say low dust, so we'll see!

I hear the friction masters are good. I will try them eventually. Supposedly they last like 6 times longer and hardly leave any dust. Who knows.

I'm interested in a set of pads that don't create as much dust too. Drives me nuts cleaning that crap off the rims. I got a killer deal on ebay for a set of Bosch ceramic pads. I got the 1le pads up front for around $65, and the PBR pads for the rear for about $60. I've yet to put them on, but I'll post results after I give them a try. P.S. The guy's ebay name is ecaronline if anyone else wants to pick up a set of pads from him.
