Upgrade your street-legal vehicle's stopping power with Hawk Performance's legendary High Performance Street (HPS) disc brake pads. These pads use Hawk's HPS braking compound, which offers a higher coefficient of friction than stock brake pads. You'll enjoy 20 to 40 percent more stopping power and greater resistance to brake fade compared to most standard replacement pads. With less fade, you'll experience better pedal feel and more consistent performance. Plus, these durable brake pads generate less brake dust.

Using these Hawk HPS front brake pads is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is safely parked on a flat surface and the engine is off. Then, carefully remove the old brake pads from your vehicle's front brakes. Install the new Hawk HPS brake pads in their place, following the proper alignment and fitting instructions. Double - check that everything is secure before moving on.
When it comes to driving with the new brake pads, give them a short break - in period. Avoid hard braking during the first few miles. This helps the pads to properly seat and ensures optimal performance.
For maintenance, regularly check your brake pads for wear. You can visually inspect them or listen for any unusual noises when braking, which could indicate excessive wear. If you notice the pads are getting thin or worn down, it's time to replace them. Also, keep the brake area clean to prevent debris from affecting the braking performance.
