I love hawk pads and raybestos Element3 rotors
Ive been really happy with the Hawk HPS 5.0 on 3 of my vehicles. Low noise low dust (and the dust it does make comes off with just car wash soap) and a noticeable increases in pedal feel.
I use Hawk HPS 5.0 pads, happy with them so far
Hawk HP+ if you want to spend a little bit more and get an impressive bite force even when cold. Also suitable for street and light track duty.
I went with Hawk 5.0 pads and Zimmerman rotors on my 340i. Very happy with them.
I use Hawk 5.0 pads with R1 Concepts Drilled and Slotted rotors, stops on a dime and cuts alot of speed when adjusting going into corners very predictable
I run hawk 5.0 pads (i used to use ebc yellow but theres been reports of ebc pads delaminating so i stopped using ebc)
I use the centric premium coated blanks & change rotors every time I change pads.
For fluid I use ate200
I swapped out the hoses for braided ss hoses.
They feel amazing and the braking power is noticeably increased but they create an incredible amount of corrosive dust and make a really terrible high pitched noise on occasion under light braking.
I have Hawk HP+ on my NA, and while the bite is good, the brake dust is pretty significant
The time I drove the Nurburgring I was using Hawk 5.0 pads and I lost my brakes to brake fade 2/3 down the track.
