Matching Rear pads to ST-60

I have a Stoptech ST-60 front brakes on my 135i. On the street I run the Stoptech Street pads and switch in Endless ME20 for the track.

I don't switch the rear pads and just leave Ferodo DS2500s in the stock rear calipers all the time, but they look like they are going to run out soon.

I've been happy with their performance but wonder if I am leaving something on the table. Can anyone recommend a pad that would suit my application?

If the ME20 is a full race pad, then you should also use a race pad in the rear instead of the clubsport type DS2500 pad.

I know but my laziness means I can only be bothered changing pads on one end haha.
So ideally I should get Endless for the back to match?

That would be a good idea.
