Are the rear brake pads really this small?

I received my Porterfield R4-S pads and the rear ones look tiny! The code on the box is the right one, but they look so small for such a large and heavy vehicle. Are these the right pads?

good luck with those pads. I tried them & had high hopes when I used them, but they squealed alot & also melted under heavy use.
They were cool enough to credit me back when I sent them back. Have been using Hawk 5.0 in the rears and working well.
 
Those look about right.

Thanks.

Hmm. They better stay quiet as I'm not tracking the FX. No Hawk 5.0 for the rear of us V6 guys.
 
Yeah. I hope you have better luck than I did. Was just giving you a heads up on my experience.
