OEM Brembo Pads replacements needing help

Just got Brembo slotted with HAWK HPS pads. Does it require any special tools to get the pads off?

Thanks

pads take like 5 mins once the wheels are off.

There is a special tool top push back the pistons, but you can substitute something else. Since you're replacing rotors too, you'll be removing the calipers anyways.

Ok Thought someone had told me you need special tools to get the Brembo pads off and on. Thanks for the help guys.

Nope, once you compress the pistons (watch that fluid level!) outside pad is floating, inside you just pull off the spring clip (easy)
