Brake pads Ferodo or Hawk Performance

Hawk HPS are GREAT.

Hawk HPS5.0 pads front and rear with slotted StopTech rotors.

I'm using Ferodo DS2500. Good pad for both road and track duty.

For track and autocross on my Miata I use Hawk HP+ and ATE Type 200 brake fluid. Both work really well, though the pads are likely overly aggressive for a daily driver.

I use (and like) ATE type 200 fluid and Hawk HPS or Ferodo DS2500 pads, for autox.

brakes i would go with Zimmerman, ATE or Brembo rotors. now for pads go with Hawk HPS 5.0. the just very little and STOP. Plus they are easy on rotors. i know because i have them.

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.

Driving the Golf R made me not buy it. I have a 2009 MKV TSI base model 6mt with APR Stg 2 (intake, chip, downpipe) upgraded stock brakes (hawk HPS, ss lines, dot 4 fluid), KW V3 coilovers (both rebound and compression adjustable) and it was faster, handled better and braked similarly to the Golf R.

I am always happy using the cheapest ceramic pads I can find and the cheapest rotors I can find, no matter what car its going on. I have expensive Hawk Performance Ceramic on my STI and they're actually worse than the cheap stuff. Tons of dust and even some noise.
