Brake pads Bosch or Hawk Performance

Hawk Performance Brake pads

I went with DBA T2 rotors with Hawk Ceramics. This was my first time trying hawk and I will never switch unless necessary. These have been by far the cleanest brake pads I've ever run. I've tried most other popular name brands and even off brand stuff.

Pros: cleanest pads, great performance

Hawk Performance Brake pads

I was using dtc 60s for the last half of last year and they lived up great through 7 days of tracking (8mm/5mm remaining rear/front), however the aggressive bite has a learning curve and is prone to ice pedal on my car. I'm switching to their ERS-1 pad this year and expecting them to last even longer.

Pros: long lasting, good performance
Cons: aggressive bite, ice pedal
Vehicle: Porsche

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.

Pros: fun, ran mid 10s
Cons: stock brakes sucked
Vehicle: Nissan

Hawk Performance Brake 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.

Pros: great after break in
Cons: spongy initially
Vehicle: Honda

The brakes suck. Kind of makes me think they just need to be bled, or the ABS pump needs to be cycled and bled via OBD2 scanner. I ordered SS lines, Hawk pads, and fluid to fix it.

Cons: brakes suck
Vehicle: Jeep Wrangler
