HPS Street Brake Pads

The Hawk Performance HPS Performance Street brake pads (HB195F.640) are engineered to significantly enhance your vehicle's braking system. These pads offer a higher coefficient of friction compared to stock brake pads, resulting in a 20-40% increase in stopping power and superior resistance to brake fade, even under demanding conditions. Constructed from a ceramic pad material and designed for street performance, these pads operate effectively within a temperature range of 100-700°F, with an optimal range of 100-500°F. They are made in the United States and are compatible with iron/metal rotors, but are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors. Installation involves a specific break-in procedure to ensure optimal performance. This includes making 6-10 moderate stops from 30-35 MPH, followed by 2-3 hard stops from 40-45 MPH, and then allowing the system to cool for 15 minutes. It is crucial not to drag the brakes during this process. These pads are listed as fitting various Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover models from 1999-2003, as well as specific BMW 318i, 318is, 325, 325e, 325es, 325i, and 325iX models. Specific fitment notes include exclusions such as 'Not for European 323i' for certain BMW models, and 'Rear, 0.640 Thickness' for Land Rover applications.
