Hawk HP+ if you want to spend a little bit more and get an impressive bite force even when cold. Also suitable for street and light track duty.
I went with Hawk 5.0 pads and Zimmerman rotors on my 340i. Very happy with them.
I use Hawk 5.0 pads with R1 Concepts Drilled and Slotted rotors, stops on a dime and cuts alot of speed when adjusting going into corners very predictable
I run hawk 5.0 pads (i used to use ebc yellow but theres been reports of ebc pads delaminating so i stopped using ebc)
I use the centric premium coated blanks & change rotors every time I change pads.
For fluid I use ate200
I swapped out the hoses for braided ss hoses.
I currently use Hawk DTC60’s on my Scion FRS with Motul RBF600 fluid for track days. The brakes feel great to me, I like the bite, and they don’t fade even on multi day events.
Just switched to dba t2 w Hawk ceramics (combo set from new provisions racing) w factory calipers and lines.
I’d been considering brembo swap, but money had to be reallocated, so I abandoned full upgrade dreams. Old rotors were warped and pads were a dusty mess, so pretty much anything was an improvement.
Hawks are quiet, super-smooth/consistent engagement when I step on pedal, and minimal dust. Definitely happy w decision.
I got my rotors turned and threw some hawks in it. HPS I think. No issues and they have good bite.
Had one in 2012. A cba 2009. Blew transmission. Covered under warranty. They put in a DBA transmission and bellhousing. Had full bolt ons and the car was fun. Ran mid 10\u2019s at over 130 mph. Stock brakes sucked. I upgraded to J hook rotors and I think hawk pads.
I run Hawk HPS 5.0 they are good but we're spongy even after the recommended break in. I ended up doing a run and intentionally abusing the brakes to get them good and hot to the point that they faded. After that, they were great.
Should’ve gone with EBC! Tried Hawk hps blues and could not go more than 500 miles before taking them off and replacing them with EBC yellows again. The noise was horrible.
