Hawk Brake Pads: HPS or Ceramic?
I'm getting Powerslot front rotors tomorrow and I want to get Hawk front brake pads as well. I don't know which model to get: HPS or Ceramic. My main concern is squealing and other noise that the HPS make in certain applications. Anybody got feedback or suggestions on either one for our car? Thanks guys.
Descriptions:
HPS (High Performance Street)
Superior Stopping Power
HPS - High Performance Street disc brake pads are world renowned for increasing stopping power on your street legal vehicle. Increasing the performance of your vehicles braking system is easy when you choose Hawk Performance’s HPS compound. This unique Ferro-Carbon formula was developed for street performance using the safety and quality of Aerospace and Motorsports severe-duty friction technology.
The HPS compound offers a higher coefficient of friction over stock pads and can provide you 20-40% more stopping power and higher resistance to brake fade than most standard replacement pads. Less fade means you’ll have a highly durable pad with less brake dust..
HPS Ferro-Compound Features:
Increased stopping power
High friction/torque hot or cold
Gentle on rotors
Extended pad life
Low dust
Virtually noise-free
-----------------------------------------------------------
Performance Ceramic
Ultimate stopping power in an ultra-low dust, low noise ceramic compound!
Hawk Performance has introduced a premium, high performance, ultra-low dust, low noise compound called Performance Ceramic.
Performance Ceramic is engineered to reduce brake NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness), creating a quieter performing brake pad. Furthermore, the ceramic formula has a linear friction profile that allows your ABS brake system to work more effectively. With Performance Ceramic you can expect reduced pad wear, lower dust output levels and a rotor-friendly brake pad.
Performance Ceramic – quiet, clean & fast stopping!
Key Features:
Increased stopping power
Increased rotor life
Extended pad life
Ultra-low dust
Extremely quiet
Stable friction output
