Brake pads OEM Volvo or Hawk Performance

Once your stock brake pads are toast as well I’d upgrade them to something like Hawk’s HPS 5 pads.

I’ve got a ‘21 XC60 T5 Inscription now with about 33k miles and absolutely love it. I’ve had a couple problems with the front, passenger side interior handle but they’ve been covered under the CPO ten year warranty. Wish it had full screen and wireless CarPlay but there are ways around it and replace the OEM brakes with better ones when it’s time as the Volvo ones suck as they wear quickly and unevenly. VERY happy with it.

hawk HPS 5.0 are great pads for daily and ‘spirited’ driving

I've enjoyed my Hawk HPS 5.0 pads quite a bit, though I have the PP brakes. Handled a track day very well with no fade (I'm no pro so I'm sure they can fade if pushed hard enough).

slapped on hawk pads and it’s been great way less dust than OEM

centric cryo rotors with hawk gt 5.0 pads, last forever no fade during hard street driving

I run Hawk HP Plus on DBA rotors, but I also sound like a school bus stopping. Doesn\u2019t bother me, but they\u2019re on the louder slide.

Hawk 5.0 can be *okay* if you aren't pushing to hard yet but theyre going to be a limitation.

Happens to me as well on the track. The Hawk “ street performance” pads I used aren’t cutting it.

I swapped to Hawk HP+ as a hybrid but ultimately I hated them on both street and track. They worked fine though.
