Hey yallz, I'm looking for a good set of brake pads that arent going to be to dusty. I figured Hawk pads would be fine but there a very mainstream set and I know alot of times there are better but less popular options.

 

i was running Hawk HPS and they were the noisiest, dustiest brake pads i've ever used. good stopping power but not enough of a difference over OEM to be worth it. i would highly recommend just getting OEM pads

 

Hmmm. I saw some on tirerack.com with a perfect rating for dust prevention.

 

either way, i still recommend getting OEM unless you need it for track/autox (which you haven'tt specified). the stopping power is great and they are very quiet and not dusty.

 

Good info, I dont know if I plan on doing any auto x or not. Any good sites to get OEM pads??

 

because i am bored at work...

lol. Yeah I just googled and found a bunch, I'm bored at work as well been here since 5am its now 5pm.

 

I run some akebonos on my daily...no dust..super quiet...cheap too =)

 

I've never had an issue with Hawk HPS pads on my Hondas and other high powered sport compacts. I've got them on all four corners on the s2k, I'm a big fan of these pads. I believe they have better stopping power in hard braking situations than the stockers but that's just my opinion. Hawk HP+ are the noisier, dustier, version of pads, but the HPS compounds are quiet and low dusting. I've got the Hawk Ceramics on another vehicle of mine but I think the HPS compounds are better.

 

Good info guys! Yeah I was looking at the akebonos as well.
