HP Plus Rear Disc Brake Pads

The Hawk Performance HB434N.543 brake pads are engineered with the legendary HP+ compound, specifically designed to enhance the stopping power of street-legal vehicles. This advanced ferro-carbon formulation offers a significantly higher coefficient of friction compared to OEM pads, translating to a potential 20 to 40 percent increase in stopping force. Beyond raw power, these rear brake pads deliver improved performance characteristics crucial for demanding driving conditions. They provide a higher resistance to brake fade, ensuring consistent pedal feel and reliable performance even during repeated hard stops. Operating optimally in low to mid temperature ranges, they are fade resistant and well-suited for spirited driving, including autocross events. It is important to note that all Hawk Performance compounds, including the HP+ compound found in the HB434N.543, are designed exclusively for use with iron/metal rotors. They are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors. For optimal performance and longevity, Hawk Performance recommends following their specific bed-in instructions, which are available through a link on the product page.
