Performance Street Brake Pads

The Hawk Performance HB553F.652 HPS Performance Street Brake Pads are engineered to significantly enhance your vehicle's braking capabilities. These rear brake pads utilize a high-performance street compound that delivers a higher coefficient of friction compared to original equipment pads. This translates to an impressive 20-40% increase in stopping power, along with superior resistance to brake fade, ensuring consistent pedal feel and performance even under demanding conditions. They offer high friction and torque whether hot or cold, contributing to extended pad life and a more durable braking system. Despite their enhanced performance, they generate medium dust levels and are virtually noise-free, with a noise level rating of 1 out of 5, making them suitable for both performance street driving and track events. The stopping power is rated at 3 out of 5. These brake pads are specifically designed for OEM caliper types and are a direct fit for a wide range of Audi models, including various A6, A8, RS4, RS6, S4, S6, and S8 trims from 2005 through 2011. It is crucial to verify fitment for your specific vehicle, as the product may vary from images based on application. The notes indicate specific fitments such as "Fits Vehicles w/330mm Rear Rotors" for certain Audi A6 models, underscoring the importance of checking compatibility details.
