Hawk Performance Brake pads

Rating 4.5

I have been running Hawk HPS 5.0 front and back since my 2019 Stinger GT. Put them on my G70 within the first 500 miles to save the rotors. They do squeak a bit, but they stop without fail and after 35k on my Stinger, never once did I get any vibration on braking.

Pros: reliable stopping, no vibration
Cons: squeaking noise
Mileage: 35000 km

Hella Pagid Brake pads

Honestly, avoid brembo. I think I have pagid on my golf GTi currently as they needed doing and I couldn't get anything else. I drive that hard and not really had any real issues unless really pushing it.

Pros: reliable, decent quality
Cons: avoid brembo

That's normal for those. I have been through 3 or 4 sets now and to be honest, I think I'm done. After COVID they just seem to be very unpredictable. I've my last set did some weird stuff sometimes and my current set feels like it needs way more temp then it should. When I did a track day and put dtc60s on it, they gripped immediately on a cold stop where the HP+ felt like it needed some use. None of the other pairs have felt that way. The noise is also totally random now, the first couple sets would be loud unless they had heat, but the new ones are a lot quieter and sometimes loud.

Cons: unpredictable, inconsistent, noisy
