"I put these pads on my g35 and I must say, these pads grip as good if not better than my already good oem brakes. But without all of the brake dust! One thing you need to do is follow the burnishing instructions on the box!! you are just asking for squealing brakes if you don't. I followed the instructions and have NO brake noise. thanks!"

GOOD performance pads

"I installed these on my 02 Ranger in conjunction with Brembo slotted rotors. Once bedded in the pads performed well, especially during high speed stops. The only thing is the carbon compound they are made of seems to be too soft. Even though they only have a few hundred miles on them. I noticed they seem to be wearing down quicker than the stock ones after I pulled them to inspect the wear. That's why I only gave 4 stars."

"I replaced the OEM pads with the Hawk HPS @24K miles. The results were better stopping response and no squelling. To early to tell about dust. Plan on putting a set on my truck."

Hawk Pads: Quick, quiet, quality

"I have done my own brake jobs for over 30 years on various types of vehicles. So when my 350Z needed brakes, I searched out what appeared to be the best. I'm glad I chose Hawk HPS. There is such a big difference with these vs. OEM and high priced ceramic pads. I was so impressed with Hawk HPS, I changed the rear pads to Hawk HPS even though they were slightly worn. I noticed that the Hawk HPS pads are much quieter than the OEM pads. I would not recommend any other brake pad other than Hawk HPS."

"These pads are excellent. It's regularly below freezing this winter and the cold stopping power of these pads is just great. There are no squeeks, rattles or grinding noises. All the original shims from the stock pads fit onto these replacements and the installation was a breeze on my '03 Infiniti G35. Highly recommended. Didn't turn the rotors, seating the breaks with multiple 30-0 stops was very effective."

Another A+ for Hawk HPS pads

"These are not my first set. I've run these on a heavily modified Subaru STi and now my '79 Trans-Am. Both for street / autocross use. There is no fade, even coming down from very high speeds. Very even rotor wear. Though they feel a little harsh, they groove very little. Great fitment both times as well. Better price and performance than carbotech bobcats. Cons are slight. A little dusting but not bad at all for performance pads. Slightly slick when cold, but they heat so quickly it is often not not noticable. I'll definitely keep using them."

"The Hawk HPS Brake Pads are used in combination with Powerslot slotted rotors on my 2000 VW GTI VR6. This combination works very well. However, the pads do not come with sensors, as the originally equipped pads. Thus, a light appears on the dash indicating "check brake pads" in addition a warning light constantly appears. I contacted my VW dealer who indicated at there these lights could not be turn off."
