Thanks for the advise. I exchanged these for the right ones (HB190F600A). The new pads went right in with no fuss.
i have the front upgrade with hawk pads all the way around, and that is all you really need for greatly increased stopping power
If you can deal with the dust get the Ferodos. They stop like hell. If dust is a problem go with the Hawks.
The rear brake pads I use all the time are ferodo 2500, they are great for the track and don't make noise on the street.
Hawk Performance Ceramic pads on the front and rear. In the past 2-months I've run 2-track days (Buttonwillow and AutoClub Speedway Roval) and I'm really impressed with their fade-resistance after 6-7 hotlaps (17+ minutes) into a session.
i did hawk race ceramics and powerslot pros from tirerack.com all i have to say is amazing! no fade or anything!
i like my hawks.. people say they are more dusty.. i didnt think so.. after tracking them once tho i feel like they wore kinda quickly
Hawk HPS review: Very good stopping performance, very close to OEM pads. Maybe slightly less initial bite. Less noise than the OEM pad. Very quiet, really. These pads produce less dust than the OEM, probably half as much nasty dust. I can go days without having to clean the wheels now. I'm pretty sure they can handle more heat than the OEM pads as well.
I'm running the same setup as you (Ferodo DS2500/Hawk HPS with ATE Super Blue) and also notice some mild fade after 6-8 laps. I also get a mushy pedal which persists after the brakes completely cool, meaning I'm probably getting some fluid boiling and need to bleed them out.
my experience with HP+ is that they squeeled annoyingly high when they were cold. I took them off after track days.
