Brake pads Brembo or Hawk Performance

I run Hawk hps 5 and have had a great experience with them the past 2 years. Seem to have improved stopping power and they produce less dust.

Today i had replace my rotors cause are very warped both, and get installed the textar front discs with brembo ceramic pads... \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc Im tired of cleaning the front rims every 2 days.

For pads I'm having pretty good success with the new Hawk Ceramic 5.0. I run those on my GLI(with Golf R calipers/brakes) and on the .:R. I was surprised for light track duty they were ok on both cars. Not a full on track pad to be clear. They are also a high torque pad so they have really good bite.

I'm using Hawk HPS pads and Raybestos Advanced rotors. No issues with braking, much stronger than the stock equipment. Still limited by the tires.

The OEM Brembo pads aren't bad at all. Mine squeak here and there, but rarely. No stopping power issues. They dust a lot.

owning a vehicle with Brembo's on it: they are really excellent brakes.

I like the Hawk HPS 5.0 pads, but I'm not sure if they will be good on the track or not.

Brembo brakes generally have no problems.

I used them on the street and in autocross on my '79 RX-7 and would agree that they were noisy and dusty on the street - the dust also ate through the finish on my wheels on that car. I didn't have fade issues with them, but that car was light and not very powerful, so it wasn't very hard on brakes.

I'm not happy with HPS 5.0 on my M3- I'm probably going to switch back to "regular" Hawk HPS, as they have worked for me on quite a few cars.
