Reviews of Hawk Performance parts For Business

Ive been really happy with the Hawk HPS 5.0 on 3 of my vehicles. Low noise low dust (and the dust it does make comes off with just car wash soap) and a noticeable increases in pedal feel.

I use Hawk HPS 5.0 pads, happy with them so far

Hawk HP+ if you want to spend a little bit more and get an impressive bite force even when cold. Also suitable for street and light track duty.

I went with Hawk 5.0 pads and Zimmerman rotors on my 340i. Very happy with them.

I use Hawk 5.0 pads with R1 Concepts Drilled and Slotted rotors, stops on a dime and cuts alot of speed when adjusting going into corners very predictable

I run hawk 5.0 pads (i used to use ebc yellow but theres been reports of ebc pads delaminating so i stopped using ebc)

I use the centric premium coated blanks & change rotors every time I change pads.

For fluid I use ate200

I swapped out the hoses for braided ss hoses.

I currently use Hawk DTC60’s on my Scion FRS with Motul RBF600 fluid for track days. The brakes feel great to me, I like the bite, and they don’t fade even on multi day events.

Had one in 2012. A cba 2009. Blew transmission. Covered under warranty. They put in a DBA transmission and bellhousing. Had full bolt ons and the car was fun. Ran mid 10\u2019s at over 130 mph. Stock brakes sucked. I upgraded to J hook rotors and I think hawk pads.

I run Hawk HPS 5.0 they are good but we're spongy even after the recommended break in. I ended up doing a run and intentionally abusing the brakes to get them good and hot to the point that they faded. After that, they were great.

after about halfway through the second session I began to feel a fluttering under hard braking. Some light shaking of the steering wheel. No noticeable pulling left or right. No noticeable brake fade.

Fast forward to the next day. I noticed this black gunk on my front pads. The rears look good as new.

Under normal conditions my Hawk-30 pads squeak. Now I am noticing a rhythmic squeaking when I brake at street speeds.
