Brake pads OEM Honda or Hawk Performance
I'm running standard DBA 4000 blank rotors with Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. My only complaint is they seem to make a lot of brake dust so I'll probably try other pads when these wear through.
I've replaced a battery, 2 exhausts and brake pads in that time. Literally that's it, just maintenance and fuel.
I would stick to oem or hawk pads.
Hawk 5.0 street. Very nice stoppers they make.
Hawk HPS brake pads are good to go with for daily driving.
I have the 2018 (CVT). Bought it secondhand. Daily driven + i already driven it back and forth sa Manila and Baguio 4-5x already this year. I already clocked in 8k sa odo, ang pinaka naging issue ko lang is napudpod na brake pads + motor ng wiper na nasira.
Last week front passenger brake began making a metal on metal grinding noise. Assumed it was brakes because this vehicle has been a frequent brake pad/rotor-replacee due to the mileage of the car. The brake pads were very low. Drove the car around for about 30mins today and no grinding noise BUT the front passenger was very hot and didn’t smell good.
I run Hawk HP Plus on DBA rotors, but I also sound like a school bus stopping. Doesn\u2019t bother me, but they\u2019re on the louder slide.
Hawk HPS5 is ceramic and not good. The Akebonos also blow.
I did have VTC rattle on startup but it went away before I could get around to fixing it. I also had the injectors fail, which were covered under that warranty recall. Also have a leak on the inside of the vehicle from a rear speaker gasket, that will be fixed when I get around to it in the coming weeks. I only learned I had a leak because the interior was moldy and moist. My brakes failed on track mostly likely due to me overheating them, and not properly cooling them down. I ended up melting the O ring on the piston itself. Never really got to diagnose what the issue really was just what I saw and felt. Replaced with "Integra Type R Big Brakes and a Mini Cooper Rotor". Somehow my compressor clutch wire was chopped in half, which caused me to replace the compressor. Though I probably could've just fixed the wires, but I already bought a new compressor so I just replaced it.
