I currently have Powerslot rotors with Hawk ceramics and I do like them, but they're not exactly inexpensive.
Thanks for the advise. I exchanged these for the right ones (HB190F600A). The new pads went right in with no fuss.
i have the front upgrade with hawk pads all the way around, and that is all you really need for greatly increased stopping power
If you can deal with the dust get the Ferodos. They stop like hell. If dust is a problem go with the Hawks.
Hawk Performance Ceramic pads on the front and rear. In the past 2-months I've run 2-track days (Buttonwillow and AutoClub Speedway Roval) and I'm really impressed with their fade-resistance after 6-7 hotlaps (17+ minutes) into a session.
i did hawk race ceramics and powerslot pros from tirerack.com all i have to say is amazing! no fade or anything!
i like my hawks.. people say they are more dusty.. i didnt think so.. after tracking them once tho i feel like they wore kinda quickly
Hawk HPS review: Very good stopping performance, very close to OEM pads. Maybe slightly less initial bite. Less noise than the OEM pad. Very quiet, really. These pads produce less dust than the OEM, probably half as much nasty dust. I can go days without having to clean the wheels now. I'm pretty sure they can handle more heat than the OEM pads as well.
I have tried the following pads (and still have them on my shelf): Stock Pagids, Mintex Reds, HPS, HP+, Ferodo DS2500 (fronts), Carbotech P+ (fronts). I have used each for several thousand miles after breaking each in per manufacturers' recommendations. And yes, this means I was changing brake pads at least every few weeks. Rotors too, I also have 3 sets of front rotors. This was all in pursuit of GREAT braking at autocross, then on track. I don't know if the HPS are the best street pad, but they're decent. That's how I meant it. Call them a 7 of 10. They aren't what I want in a street pad, but for someone that never does autocross or track days - they're good. Personally I thought they were very similar to the stock 20AE Pagids. (I originally went from Stock to Mintex to HPS to Stock and back to HPS again, btw) The HPS dusted as much as the stockers and had similar bite. I didn't test their fade resistance. With a stock braking system, I think HP+ and DS2500 are both IFFY track pads. The HP+ are great as long as you don't overheat them and replace them every 2 or 3 events.
I would steer away from the Hawk HPS pads for track use. I used em just for a track day and they were starting to fade. Like someone else mentioned, the Hawk HP plus is better
