Are you ready to hit the track with your vehicle? Performance modifications under the hood will give you speed in the straights, but nothing reduces lap times like new brake pads. These racing pads from Hawk offer offers excellent modulation and braking power for a wide variety of applications. Medium/High torque brake compound. Low pad and rotor wear with good brake modulation.
Ceramic brake pads are one of the newest innovations in the automotive aftermarket. With decades in the motorsports arena, ceramic braking components have been tested and abused. Hawk Performance brings this technology to your daily driver with a set of Performance Ceramic brake pads.
The benefits of ceramic brake components are vastly superior to the traditional metal compound pad. Because ceramic does not absorb heat as rapidly, heavy braking in hot conditions will keep your brakes from fading. With a much higher co-efficient of friction, stopping distances are reduced as stopping power is increased. Also, because of their lower metal content, brake dust is all but eliminated. All of this comes with the added benefit of drastically increased brake rotor life.
If it's time to replace your pads, it is also a good idea replace your rotors to get maximum braking performance and longer life out of your brakes. Replacing just one component can result in problems down the road. ECS carries a wide variety of brake rotors for your vehicle. With new pads and rotors, you need to make sure they are bedded and mated with each other. To be sure they are, follow the brake pad bedding procedure on ECS Tuning's site.
SPECIAL NOTE: Due to the aggressive nature of the Hawk Performance Motorsports Compound pads, they are not recommended for street use. Optimum operating temperatures: 250F -1000F (121C - 538C)
