Brake pads Brembo or Hawk Performance

I do really like the Hawk HPS pads. They cost a little more, but I think they are worth it.

I had the stoptech then switched over to Hawk HP Plus - best decision I've made. They're not exactly quiet but tolerable (in my opinion) - they bite awesomely though.

I would recommend Hawk HPS pads. They bite instantly, so they could be a little noisy if you don't grease the backs. They aren't great on dust, but you will always have a lot of brake dust due to the size of the brakes. The performance is probably the best available for non race applications. I have never experienced brake fade, but I do have a heavily modified brake system.

I have scirocco 10.1's up front and 8(?) discs out back with mk4 calipers. All four have Hawk HPS pads I believe. They're more than enough stopping power, OEM, and very affordable if you buy them on vortex, ebay, or a junkyard.

Hawk HPS are outstanding, good bite with very linear feel and low dust

I've been happy with my Hawk HPS. I don't track my car, but they handle the dragon fine.

Hawk HPS are decent, as long as you never see winter conditions I hate mine in the winter, as it does take a bit to heat them up (as I approach my intersections going down steep hills). The initial bite, when it is warmed up, isn't as grabby compared to stock also.

switching to a new set of stockers showed me exactly how different the dimensions are. they look the same, but the fit is no where near the correct size for these carriers. the brembo pads bounced around like crazy. its alright i was able to return them but i was hoping to get rid of dust. maybe ill try to get a replacement set and see if they fit any better
