I would like to share my experience with the Hawk brake pads. A few year back when I first join this forum, right after I bought my G. I read about the brake issues some members have brought up. I immediately changed to Hawk pads. My experience with them has been extremely satisfied to say the least. I have about 80K, the front pads are good for another 10K with orginal rotors. I changed a rear pads at about 70K still original rotors. The Hawk pads are gentle on the rotors with very little dust. The best price is at Amazon with free shipping.

 

i have these with drilled and slotted rotors installed at 60k, im about to 95k now and have no complaints. i bought them from z1 motorsports ... didnt do too much shopping around at the time.

 

which pads are you guys referring too? since hawk has different types. but i totally agree with the op. im using hps pads and have no complaints.

 

The Hawk street pads. Don't use their racing pads.

 

i think i got the straight ceramic ones ... dont remember

 

I have the HPS, they're not that great when cold, but they get VERY sticky when hot. They also tend to dust ALOT.

 

i thought HPS aren't suppose to dust a lot?!

i was gonna buy a set!

 

I have them with my cross drilled rotors and they are starting to squeek very bad.. Not sure on the miles but they do need to be replaced so I just ordered another set from Riverside Infiniti for $109.00 for the front and rear.. There is definitly less dust from my oem pads..

 

frankie is that $109.00 shipped?

is that a deal got g35driver members? =) ... i'm in if so!

 

nah, they don't dust bad at all.

 

$123.95 still a very nice price..

 

My experiences were mostly good with HPS pads. No dust, hard quick stops, EXCEPT when it was cold AND raining. It felt like I had NO brakes at all for the first second and a full second is a LONG time when you are coming into a fast turn in the rain and need to scruff off some speed or go over the rail. Never again.
