Brake pads Carbotech or Hawk Performance

I'd go for either Hawk HPS 5.0

After researching, I'm going to go for the Hawk HPS 5.0 next time I go to the track or wear my current ones down. From what I've read, it's a comparable to the oem feel, but produces less dust, which sounds really nice for my occasional trip to the track and for keeping my wheels clean.

The rotors I used are DBA 4000 series T3, and pads are HAWK HPS 5.0

Once your stock brake pads are toast as well I’d upgrade them to something like Hawk’s HPS 5 pads.

hawk HPS 5.0 are great pads for daily and ‘spirited’ driving

I've enjoyed my Hawk HPS 5.0 pads quite a bit, though I have the PP brakes. Handled a track day very well with no fade (I'm no pro so I'm sure they can fade if pushed hard enough).

slapped on hawk pads and it’s been great way less dust than OEM

I have used HPS 5.0 for a long time now. They do dust a decent amount.

I really like my hawk er1’s. They work whether they’re cold or hot. I daily drive my rx8 during the summer, and drive to track days and autoX. They are squeaky and pretty dusty

Hawk HPS5 is ceramic and not good. The Akebonos also blow.
