Notched, Performance Brake Pad, Who Makes It?

I have been searching online most of the morning trying to find a performance pad with a rear application for the '05 Mini. I have not been able to find one that is notched for the wear sensor. Does one exist?

Dunno myself and would like to... Know several popular performance ones that do not, but I too would like this, if anyone is making them.

I run the Hawk HPS on the street and just zip tie the sensor wire to the rear damper. You really don't need the sensors and but zip tying it out of the way (and not removing it) will keep the brake wear light from illuminating.

I agree....the rear sensor is kind of worthless. Fronts will always wear quicker.
