Brake pads ATE or Hawk Performance

I run hawk hp+ for street and track use

Hawk LTS improved the pedal in my 460, and unlike power stop, Hawk isn’t the laughing stock of track day communities

I went with the pads from ATE and got them fitted today, all in all it cost around 200 USD / 2000 SEK. 2 years ago the mechanic told me all 4 brakes need replacing. Today when they were replaced the rear ones had about half of the material left and the front 1/3.

I have Hawk 5.0 pads with KnS standard rotors and they've been pretty great so far.

I’d used hawk ceramic pads especially since you don’t plan on tracking the car. Low dust and will keep the wheels looking good between washes

They don't even squeal as much any more

Hawk DTC-60 pads are the best value performance pads I found. Stock blank rotors are fine, I upgraded to a 335i sport caliper set and its been more than sufficient for many track days

EBC for occasional track and daily pad. HAWK DCT60 is what I’m running. Stops so good!!

I used these Hawk brake pads for a HPDE track day so they did get very hot. They still have 10mm of thickness left, but this particular pad has these very pronounced cracks. All other pads have very minor cracks (barely visible), but this one was the worst.

Garbage pads. They're like a damn on/off switch and they chew through rotors.
