Choose Hawk ceramic brake pads for your ride
The pads you choose will depend on your style of driving. If getting out on the track is an integral part of your life, you’ll want to fit vehicles with the highest heat-proof styles, helping them halt on command. That’s not always necessary for street drivers who hit up the racetrack on occasion, which is why we supply options to suit every lifestyle.
Street cars usually don’t need to be fitted with super high performance products. We recommend going for:
- PC HPS Ceramic models that provide enough heat tolerance and aren’t overly disturbed by dust
- Street HPS 5.0 designs, which have less temperature, dust and noise control, but are perfect for everyday use
The next level up is the HP+ range. This line offers higher friction, better temperature tolerance, and a lot more stopping power for autocross and race days. Models from this line bridge the gap between entry-level and professional pads, allowing you to have substantial noise and dust control. As a result, you can go from street to track without having to swap out your gear.
Noise generation is a factor to look out for when you’re choosing brakes, so keep it in mind. Products intended for racing often sacrifice dampening in favour of fast deceleration, producing that screeching halt effect. While we admit that it does add to the driving experience, context is everything. Ask yourself: would loud noise be appreciated where you’re driving? If not, go for the HPS series and you’ll benefit from the best in street gear.
How long do Hawk brake pads last?
HPS 5.0 and PC are a level up from OEM parts. They have a similar lifespan to stock parts, but offer better performance.
As for high-level racing style parts, which are engineered to take the toll of high heat, stress and dusty conditions, you’ll be going through them in twice the time. If that’s the case, consider stocking up on a model that reliably achieves fast deceleration.
Having backups on hand is always a good idea – and with our Buy Now Pay Later options, it’s easier than ever to be prepared with the best parts. Check out now and get ready to safely push the boundaries of your ride.
