Product Details

You're getting a set of Hawk HPS 5.0 front brake pads, designed to give your 2014-2019 Acura RLX a noticeable boost in stopping performance. These pads are built to handle more heat than your original equipment pads, which means you get more consistent braking power, especially when you're pushing your car a bit harder. They're a solid choice if you're looking for a straightforward way to improve your vehicle's braking system without needing to change out other components.

The HPS 5.0 compound is known for its ability to maintain a higher coefficient of friction, both when cold and when hot. This translates to a more confident pedal feel and a reduction in brake fade, meaning your brakes won't feel as mushy or lose effectiveness during prolonged use. You can expect a 20 to 40 percent increase in stopping power over stock pads, and they're engineered to be gentle on your rotors while also generating less brake dust, keeping your wheels cleaner.

These pads are designed to work well within the limits of your ABS system, ensuring reliable performance. If you're looking for an improved pedal feel and quieter operation compared to some other performance pads, these Hawk pads are a popular option.
