Brake Pads

With over 30 years of expertise, Hawk has developed a brake pad that balances safety, stopping power, and noise reduction for both daily commutes and track use. The HPS (High Performance Street) compound features a higher coefficient of friction than stock pads, offering a 20-40% increase in stopping power. This unique Ferro-Carbon formula ensures a smooth braking feel that inspires confidence, consistent brake release for predictable stopping, and superior rotor and pad wear for longevity. These pads are gentle on rotors, contributing to extended pad life. Installation is straightforward, but it's recommended to ensure secure pad seating, check brake fluid, inspect hydraulic components, and resurface or replace rotors if necessary. Rotors should be cleaned with sandpaper and soap and water if in good condition. Calipers should be inspected and lubricated as needed. These brake pads are compatible with iron/metal rotors only and are not suitable for carbon ceramic rotors. The Hawk Performance HPS Front Brake Pads fit a wide range of vehicles, including 1987-1993 Ford Mustangs, 1987-1988 Ford Thunderbirds, and 1987-1988 Mercury Cougars. Always confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.
