Hawk HPS installation question
#32
Absolutely correct! They suck in colder temperatures and when it's raining. Let me rephrase that, they can damn near kill you if they don't get up to temperature. My spirited driving is limited in the winter due to these pads...
There has to be an alternative to Hawks HPS?

Folks, as has been discussed many times on this and other boards, brake pads are a compromise. You want better fade resistance and less dusting, you're going to give up cold stopping power. Hawk HPS is simply a higher temp pad made of harder materials. Lasts longer, dusts less and resist higher temp fade, but they take a while to warm up and don't grab well. That's why the factory picked the OEM pads - they stop well cold.
