TRD Brake Pads?

Well Stillen doesn't make a set for the Matrix, does TRD. I am looking to pickup som Powerslot rotors when the time comes and hopefully a set of TRD pads, but I can't find an application for them. Does it not exist? Or can I just go off of what they spec for a Corolla.

Good question. I did google for TRD brake pads for the Matrix, but found nothing either.

I've had the Hawk HPS on my Civic with the Powerslot rotors and really didn't care for them, so I switched back to Stillen Metal Matrix; still my favorite pad of all time. The Hawks were noisy and left too much dust and the stopping left something to be desired. I have heard too many mixed reviews of the EBC Green Stuff pads to give them a shot. I would love TRD if they made them for the Matrix. I might have to go with a set of Axxis but I am very curious if the Corolla spec'd TRD pads will fit a Matrix.
