Brake pads Brembo or Hawk Performance

Brakes were great, no fade issues(Hawk Ceramic 5.0 pads up front, stockers in the rear) running Motul RBF. Mixed conditions so I had a little of everything, rain, drying, damp. NO bias problems at all, no issues w/the ABS doing funky things. The car didn't want to throw itself off track or anything like that, even in the rain. Just very progressive feel. They put up with me having to trailbrake the crap out of this car so I figure they did ok.

Front Golf R OEM Brakes include: TyrolSport Stainless Steel brake lines TyrolSport Caliper Stiffener kit (re-lubed every year - had them on for 4 years, re-lubed 3 Times, so good condition) Hawk HPS pads The above parts were installed at about the 24k mile point, so have about 24k miles on them.

I've got factory Brembo's on my 2014 Jeep GC SRT...it took some getting used to when driving as the brakes are very responsive!

Love the pads, don't like the squealing at times, but for a high torque pad it's really good. They have the same feeling at Hawk DTC's which I use on track, but have that strong bite at a MUCH lower temp. than the DTC's do.

I just replaced my OEM pads with Hawk HPS5.0 pads and slotted StopTech rotors. Slightly more dust than the OEM ceramic pads but they do a good job.

i'm using hawk pads (on my second set) currently, but might try the reds on my next swap out.

I put these on my Corrado along with the big rotors from ECS and Hawk HPS pads. They really stop good!

Around $2200 for a full brake job on my Jeep SRT's Brembo brakes! Stops on a friggin' dime too!

Those were my last pads. The bite is totally different from stock... but in the winter, the first couple of stops are down right scary until the pads get some heat in them. I'm braking down some steep inclines... that's why I got rid of them half way through its life--- hoping the Akebonos will be better..

I stepped up to Brembo pads on my A4 and they are nothing to write home about performance-wise. They also dust like no other pad I've used.
