Anybody running brake pads other than stock?

looking for other options besides the ridiculously soft rear pads that volvo put on these cars. i'm not having much luck finding anything at the places i'm used to going. i'm interested to hear if anybody switched, how they liked the replacement and where they got them.

Thanks for the tip. I ended up putting on Hawk HPS pads in the rear. I got them from a shop that deals with japanese makes mostly, the brake system on these cars is the same as a mazda 3 apparently. The reviews I read were very positive, I'll post back how they end up working out.
