Hawk Performance's HPS High Performance Street disc brake pads are renowned for significantly boosting stopping power in street-legal vehicles. Opting for these pads makes it a breeze to upgrade your vehicle's braking system. The HPS compound offers a higher friction coefficient than stock brake pads, delivering 20 to 40 percent more stopping power and better resistance to brake fade compared to most standard replacement pads. With less fade, you'll enjoy a better pedal feel and more consistent performance. These durable brake pads also generate less brake dust. This Part Fits:

Using these Hawk HPS brake pads is simple. Just replace your old brake pads with these new ones following your vehicle's standard brake pad replacement procedure. When driving, you'll notice the improved stopping power right away. As for maintenance, it's a good idea to regularly check the brake pads for wear. If you see that the pads are getting thin, it's time to replace them. Also, make sure to keep the brake system clean to ensure the best performance. When you first install the pads, give them a gentle break - in period. Don't apply sudden, hard brakes right away. Instead, gradually increase the braking force over the first few stops. This will help the pads seat properly and perform at their best.
