Hawk pads, opinions?!

[tedman]

Hi all, gonna be needing new pads for my civic for the upcoming track day in kirkistown in June so looking to sort out parts to have ready when I get home in June.

Basically looking for opinions or experiences of hawk pads.

Been checking DS2500 and EBC yellowstuff prices and hawk pads seem to be promising similar performance for amuck cheaper price.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

I have looked thru the brakes FAQ and didn't find them in there...

Run them myself but aint been around Kirkistown so cant really comment for track use.

Which hawk pad are you talking about?

I've used the hawk hp plus, on the track and on the street, great pads for the money, the only issue is that they'll create a LOT of brake dust.

Cheers guys, have a track day coming up in June and then my car goes back into storage for another year

Yea it was the HP+ I was wondering about.
What's the wear rate like on them?
Ricky do you think I could get a day in kirki out of a set?

I got 40miles out of a set of motor factor pads around there and they were literally disintegrating to pieces ha ha!
