hehateme2812 Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Hey Everyone, My Brakes started to sqeak the other day and I was thinking about doing the pads this weekend. I have been getting the dealer to do it up until now. I want to get an upgraded set of pads now as I am going to be other performance upgrades to it as well. Where do I start. I have no idea what pads are good for the money and what aren't. I am looking to spend right around $50 bucks on both sets (front and rear). Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 They'll be 10 or 15 bucks more than you want to spend, but Hawk HPS pads are phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood1 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I second the motion for Hawk HPS pads. The difference in braking is very noticeable on my '11 Sport. Less dust, stronger stopping and great initial bite. You get what you pay for with pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xK317Hx Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 I've always been a fan if hawk pads. Is there any options for non factory rear rotors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dre2142 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Im going to order some of these Hawks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frebrd18 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 On my 07 I tried green EBCs as an upgrade from the stock pads. They were disappointing, lousy bite and dirty. Then I got Hawks all around and I was surprised by the braking performance...and they are a lot less dusty than the EBCs! Highly recommended.
