Love the pads, don't like the squealing at times, but for a high torque pad it's really good. They have the same feeling at Hawk DTC's which I use on track, but have that strong bite at a MUCH lower temp. than the DTC's do.

Pros: strong bite, high torque
Cons: squealing at times

I just replaced my OEM pads with Hawk HPS5.0 pads and slotted StopTech rotors. Slightly more dust than the OEM ceramic pads but they do a good job.

Pros: do a good job
Cons: slightly more dust

Hawk Performance Brake pads

Those were my last pads. The bite is totally different from stock... but in the winter, the first couple of stops are down right scary until the pads get some heat in them. I'm braking down some steep inclines... that's why I got rid of them half way through its life--- hoping the Akebonos will be better..

Pros: different bite
Cons: scary in winter, poor cold performance

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.

Cons: tons of dust, some noise
Vehicle: Subaru
