"I installed these pads on a 2005 Cadillac CTS. Great brakes and highly recommended by other users. They fit perfectly and there was even a nifty decal in the box. DO NOT forget brake grease on the pins as you will have rattles without it."

"I put these on my BMW 740il and am pleased with the results. Prior to installing these pads my wheels that always had the annoying black brake dust… after two weeks no more black brake dust and the stopping power is equal to or maybe a little better than the oe pads. The noise level when braking however is a bit squeakier. I hope this will go away in time. Overall I recommend the product."

"I am using Hawk pads with new Brembo replacement rotors since 300 miles ago. The installation was very easy. No noise and have not noticed any dust yet. At the beginning the stopping power was not that great and now after 300 miles it feels much better."

"Easy to install. High quality. Beats NTB and all the brake shops. They put the cheap Ceramic pads that crack or seperate. Low dust and no noise. Make sure you put the silicone on the backside of the pads on the metal. Why don't the brake shops do that? Shipping was very fast. Took me about 1.5 hours to change the front pads. Not bad. Saved about $60.00 or $70.00 bucks."

"The Hawk's, as expected worked out great for my very well maintained vehicle. Much better than OEM front's, not sure why they don't make a rear brake set for the Montero Sport? Overall, I find them to be a great set of pads, worth the money... Lifetime warranty sounds nice but not sure if its realistic to use it if that ever becomes an issue. Solid brakes that will stop just about anything... Oh yea, no noise or dust, at all."

"After 50k miles on the stock pads, I'd forgotten what it was like to have quiet pads on the car. Stopping power seems better, and seem to have less dust as well, but the biggest advantage so far has been the lack of noise."

"I put these pads on with high hopes, and so far they are everything I expected. They stop considerably better than the O'Reilly specials. While my old brake pads were on, the ABS would fail often leaving me locked up into a redlight. With these pads, I haven't locked up once, testing at 40, 50, and 60+ mph. Last, I haven't had adequate time to test how much better or worse (probably better) these are when it comes to brake dust."
