"I've been using them for quite a while on most of my vehicles and have been very happy with them. They last at least twice as long as the cheap parts store brands and they grip like no tomorrow."

"This car has inadequate brakes front and rear, but what do you expect for a econo car. Front rotors would warp so I replaced with Brembo rotors and Hawk pads. This stopped the hideous squeal from the front brakes and provides good braking performance. So far no rotor warp but I really haven't heated them up bad either. Overall, this combo seems better that OEM."

"These pads went on a Infinity FX35 and for those who have driven the later models Nissans and Infinity know that they have a very aggressive initial bite stock. After changing the the Hawk HPS, it did seem to have a slightly softer initial bite compared to the stock pads, but the stock pads did fade fairly quick with a few hard stops. These pads are more fade resistant and seem to hold up well. These pads are pretty good, but a little expensive and will probably buy them again."

"The Hawk HPS Disc Brake Pads for rear on 2003 VW Jetta 1.8T are quiet and responsive. These pads are far superior to stock pads and well worth the extra cost."

"I bought these pads for my 2003 Nissan Frontier. The installation was easy and I noticed a significant performance increase from my stock pads. I would highly recommend these brake pads."

"I feared excessive noise from high performance brake pads, but so far I have not heard a peep from them. I have only logged about 150 miles so I don't have them bedded in completely, I suspect."

"I was quoted $195 for a factory issue pair of front pads fro my 2007 Acura TL Type S. Started looking around for other reputable brands and someone recommended HAWK. My mechanic installed them in 40 minutes and immediately I noticed a difference. Good initial bite, minimal fading, low brake dust. Only thing I could complain about was a little bit of noise the first couple of hundred miles(goes away eventually). Best part is, I saved $100 and still got great pads."

Hawk HPS brake pad upgrade for 2002 Acura MDX

"Just upgraded my 2002 Acura MDX to Hawk HPS pads. Installation was straight-forward, and took about 2 hrs for all 4 wheels. After bedding the pads I'd say there was a noticeable difference in the car's braking. In particular, the Hawk pads have much better initial bite and continue to grip progressively with pedal input. They convey a real increase in confidence in the braking of this 4300lb vehicle. Recommended."
