Brake pads Centric or Hawk Performance

I've used hawk hp plus with a CSL rotor setup for about a decade now and have been very happy. They fit my needs well.

Hawk ER1. They’re fantastic.

Centric pads and rotors are pretty good. As said above Akenono is OE for pads, maybe rotors too. I run Akebono pads and Brembo standard rotors on my cars. Nice and clean and never any noise and I swear the standard brembo rotors stop harder the centrics drilled/slotted rotors.

I went with hawk 5.0 pads, they dust wayyyyy less than stock. Bite and stopping power feels just as good.

I run Hawk HP+ on the street, they do not seem to need heat to work. There is some dusting but little noise and they don't seem to eat through rotors.

I've been running the Hawk 5.0s on a bunch of cars. I like them, they've even held up to a couple track days. Lots of dust but I think that just comes with the territory of performance pads.

I was overheating mine and switched to Hawk HPS 5.0. I’ve only run them in the street so far but they fit that role fine.

I use Hawk 5.0 with centric 120’rotors. Minimal dust, no noise. Cold performance friendly but enough room in the temp range. So I can beat on it at auto X but still Street friendly.

I've also had the Hawk HPS, another popular pad, but this has less bite and actually takes some leg work to really get them working IMO. I didn't like the feel.

Yeah wish I knew this before I put them on this weekend. Brand new wheels lol. I’ve been wiping them down every night
