Brake pads ENDLESS or Hawk Performance

Hawk HP 5.0 was a decent enough upgrade for my tuned S5 and still perfectly fine for street use for my first few track days.

I run Endless ME20 on my E92 (it has an F80 brakes retrofit) and they work great. Done 12 track days now on the set and they still have over 50% material left, but I'm on my 2nd set of track tyres. Not all the track days have been full-on though.

HAWK HPS 5.0 on mine currently - no complaints. Keeps the Linear pedal feel (doesnt bite hard in the beginning then dies out if that makes sense) and stops much better than the OEMs. It does dust a bit but nothing crazy.

my strategy when I started to run into a similar type of problem (brake pads disintegrating and eating my budget) was to go to endurance race pads - for me the Hawk ER1 pads seem to be working well.

I use Hawk Blue pads, they brake great and don't wear out.

I recently put Hawk Performance Ceramics (yellow box) on my FL5 for daily driving to combat the insane amount of brake dust that OEM pads have. So far they feel really good! They seem to have an initial bite that is a little more aggressive than the OEM pads, but still have good modulation. FWIW I live in the south and I haven't yet driven them in cold temps. I've read that ceramics can have a weaker initial bite when temps are near freezing but I haven't had a chance to evaluate that.

Hawk DTC 70 or 60 are great and not too expensive, plus they didn't squeel for me on the street.

I upgraded to EX brakes with some junkyard drilled/slotted rotors and Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. They were leaps and bounds better, but I have boiled DOT3 more than a few times and can sense the brakes when they get hot and I'll simply ease up and go with a slower pace.

You could look at Hawk Enduro pads and see if they last longer but you'll probably net less braking power so you'll need to recalibrate your markers a bit. 3100lbs and 300hp - dtc60s last me 8-11 track days (though one of my local tracks is easy on brakes) based on my experience last year running in advanced groups - including multiple open sessions with 30-50m long runs.

I changed out the oem and ran Hawks for a while, braking distance wan't much difference but the brake dust was terrible, Rims where dirty all of the time.
